Pokemon Go‘s latest season is coming to an end and to give it a proper send-off Niantic is hosting the Max Out Finale event which includes plenty of debuts, Shiny Legendaries, bonuses, and more.
The Max Out season kicked off back on September 3, 2024, and caused a huge stir in the community due to the introduction of both Dynamax and Gigantamax mechanics, as well as plenty of events filled with new content.
Now it’s time to say goodbye and make way for a new season filled with more surprises. So, without further ado, here’s everything happening in the Max Out Finale event.
Pokemon Go Max Out Finale event dates & times
The Pokemon Go Max Out Finale event will run from Wednesday, November 27, 2024, at 10:00 AM until Sunday, December 1, 2024, at 8:00 PM local time.
The new season will kick off as soon as this event ends. However, no details have been revealed yet.
Galarian Corsola & Cursola debuts
The Galarian variation of Corsola and its evolution Cursola will be debuting during Pokemon Go’s Max Out Finale event. Plus, both Shiny versions will also become available, which is unusual, as these special variations are not usually introduced on the same day.
Players can hatch Ghost-type Galarian Corsola from 7 km Eggs and then use 50 Candy to evolve it into Cursola. Neither will appear in Raids or the wild during the event, so hatching (and evolving them) will be the only way to obtain these creatures.
