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, alongside costumed variants of Nidoqueen and Nidoking, and a host of other rewards to enhance your gameplay.

Kingambit's introduction to Pokémon Go is a highlight of the Crown Clash event. To add this formidable Pokémon to your collection, you'll need to evolve Bisharp. However, there's a unique requirement: Bisharp must be your buddy, and you'll need to triumph in 15 Raid Battles against Dark- or Steel-type Pokémon. Bisharp doesn't need to battle itself; simply having it as your buddy while you collect those victories will do the trick.

Adding to the excitement, Nidoqueen and Nidoking will appear in their new crowned forms. These majestic Pokémon will not only be available in the wild but will also feature prominently in three-star raids. Keep an eye out for their Shiny variants as well. One-star raids will include Sneasel, Klink, and Pawniard, giving you more opportunities to catch these Pokémon.

In the wild, you'll encounter more frequent spawns of Pokémon like Slowpoke, which might reward you with a King's Rock, along with Slakoth, Piplup, Combee, Snivy, and Litleo. Pawniard will also appear more often, offering you a chance to add it to your collection.

The Crown Clash event also offers double XP for evolving Pokémon, making it the perfect time to evolve those Pokémon you've been holding onto. Engage in event-themed Field Research tasks and a catch-and-evolve Collection Challenge to earn extra XP, Stardust, and another opportunity to catch Pawniard. Trainers at Level 31 and above can look forward to guaranteed Candy XL for evolutions upon completing the challenge.

Don't miss out on the event-themed Showcases at PokéStops, where you can showcase your crown-worthy catches. Additionally, the Pokémon Go Web Store will feature special deals to help you gear up for this regal event.
