On July 19, 2025, Gigantamax Lapras will star in a Max Battle Day. Meaning from 2:00 p.m. until 5:00 p.m, (local time) you'll be able to participate in Max Raids for Gigantamax Lapras. There are multiple bonuses, including a free Timed Research. Here's what to expect:

  • Remote Pass limit increased to 20 during the event
  • Max Particle collection limit increased to 1,600
  • Two additional Special Trades
  • 8x Max Particles from Power Spots
  • Boosts to Max Particles from Adventuring and exploring
  • Free Timed Research
    • Rewards a Dynamax Passimian
    • Rewards Max Particles and other items

Also, for US$4.99, you can get a paid Timed Research, which includes:

  • 1 Max Mushroom
  • 25,000 XP
  • 2x XP from Max Battles bonus
  • Max Particle collection limit increased to 5,600

Not a bad event for a Max Raid day. This is a great opportunity to use your newly-obtained and powered up Zacian and Zamazenta. I get the feeling Raid Days are going to be far easier with more trainers having access to powerful Pokémon. Though, keep in mind Gigantamax Lapras is weak to Electric-, Fighting-, Grass-, and Rock-type moves as you prepare to battle it.
