Gigantamax Lapras Returns in Max Battle Day July 19

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.
