Authore: BellaUpdate:May 28,2025

The Might and Mastery season is set to conclude with a spectacular finale, the Final Strike: Go Battle Week, running from May 21st to 27th. This powerhouse event promises to deliver a thrilling end to the season, featuring the debut of Urshifu and the formidable Gigantamax Machamp. It's the perfect opportunity to showcase your skills and reap the rewards of your hard work with new encounters, evolutions, and a plethora of bonuses.

During Go Battle Week, you can evolve your Kubfu into Urshifu, a highly anticipated evolution. To achieve this, you'll need 200 Kubfu Candy and must strategically defeat either 30 Dark-type or 30 Water-type Pokémon in raids or Max Battles while Kubfu is your buddy. Choose between the Single Strike and Rapid Strike styles of Urshifu to suit your battling preferences.

The event features a free Special Research that continues the Might and Mastery storyline, rewarding you with additional Kubfu Candy, Mysterious Components, and themed encounters like Charcadet with a Special Background. You'll also have the chance to evolve fan-favorite Pokémon such as Mankey, Seel, and Froakie into versions with exclusive attacks.

For those looking for premium experiences, the $1.99 Timed Research offers two Premium Battle Passes, Lucky Eggs, and more themed Pokémon. The $7.99 Fuzzy Fighter Special Research allows you to reconnect with Dynamax Kubfu, complete with additional items and season-themed encounters. Both options are available until the event concludes, complemented by the Fuzzy Fighter Ultra Ticket Box at the Pokémon Go Web Store.

The climax of the event arrives on Sunday, May 25th, with the Gigantamax Max Battle Day. From 2:00 to 5:00 pm, every Power Spot will host Gigantamax Battles, featuring the six-star debut of Gigantamax Machamp. These battles come with boosted Max Particle rewards and an increased collection cap. Don't forget to use *Pokémon Go codes* for additional freebies!
