Kingambit Joins Pokémon Go in Crown Clash Event Next Month

As you prepare for the Sweet Discoveries event, get ready for the regal festivities of the upcoming Crown Clash event in Pokémon Go, set to take place from May 10th to 18th. This event promises a royal experience with the debut of Kingambit, the Big Blade Pokémon, and costumed variants of Nidoqueen and Nidoking adorned in majestic crowns. Alongside these new additions, a plethora of rewards await, including bonus XP for evolving your Pokémon.

Kingambit will make its grand entrance during the Crown Clash, offering players the chance to evolve Bisharp into this powerful Pokémon. To achieve this, Bisharp must be your buddy, and you'll need to triumph over 15 Dark- or Steel-type Pokémon in Raid Battles. Bisharp doesn't need to participate in the battles; just ensure it's by your side as you secure those victories.

Adding to the excitement, Nidoqueen and Nidoking will appear in their regal attire, with the possibility of encountering their Shiny variants. These crowned Pokémon will headline three-star raids, while Sneasel, Klink, and Pawniard will feature in one-star raids.

In the wild, you'll encounter frequent spawns of Pokémon such as Slowpoke (which could yield a King’s Rock), Slakoth, Piplup, Combee, Snivy, and Litleo. Keep an eye out for Pawniard, which will also appear more frequently.

With double XP for evolving Pokémon, now is the perfect time to tackle your evolution backlog. Engage in event-themed Field Research tasks and a catch-and-evolve Collection Challenge to earn extra XP, Stardust, and another opportunity to encounter Pawniard. Trainers at Level 31 and above are in for a treat with guaranteed Candy XL for evolutions upon completing the challenge.
