Kingambit Joins Pokémon Go in Crown Clash Event Next Month

As you're wrapping up the Sweet Discoveries event, get ready for the regal spectacle of the Crown Clash in Pokémon Go, running from May 10th to 18th. This event is your golden opportunity to evolve the powerful Kingambit, adorn your Pokémon with crowns, hunt for Shiny Pokémon, and earn bonus XP for every evolution you complete.

Kingambit, the Big Blade Pokémon, is set to make its grand entrance during Crown Clash. To add this formidable Pokémon to your roster, you'll need to evolve Bisharp. But here's the catch: Bisharp must be your buddy, and you'll have to conquer 15 Dark- or Steel-type Pokémon in Raid Battles. Bisharp doesn't need to fight; just bring it along to collect those victories.

Joining the fray are two royally attired Pokémon – Nidoqueen and Nidoking, decked out in dazzling crowns. If luck is on your side, you might even encounter their Shiny versions. These crowned monarchs will be the stars of three-star raids, while one-star raids will feature Sneasel, Klink, and Pawniard.

The wilds are bustling with activity during the event. Keep your eyes peeled for frequent spawns like Slowpoke (which could lead you to a King’s Rock), Slakoth, Piplup, Combee, Snivy, and Litleo. Pawniard will also make more frequent appearances if luck smiles upon you.

With double XP for evolving Pokémon, it's the perfect time to tackle your evolution backlog. Event-themed Field Research tasks and a catch-and-evolve Collection Challenge will further boost your XP, Stardust, and give you more chances to encounter Pawniard. Trainers at Level 31 and above can look forward to guaranteed Candy XL for their evolutions upon completing the challenge.

Don't miss out on the event-themed Showcases at PokéStops, where you can flaunt your crown-worthy catches. And to enhance your event experience, the Pokémon Go Web Store is stocked with deals to help you gear up for Crown Clash.
