Kingambit Joins Pokémon Go in Crown Clash Event Next Month

Author : Benjamin May 05,2025

As you prepare for the Sweet Discoveries event, Pokémon Go is gearing up for the regal Crown Clash event, set to take place from May 10th to 18th. This event offers a prime opportunity to evolve the powerful Kingambit, adorn your Pokémon with crowns, and collect numerous rewards, including bonus XP for evolving your Pokémon.

Kingambit, known as the Big Blade Pokémon, will make its debut during the Crown Clash event. To add this formidable Pokémon to your collection, you'll need to evolve a Bisharp. However, there's a unique requirement: Bisharp must be set as your buddy, and you must defeat 15 Dark- or Steel-type Pokémon in Raid Battles. Bisharp doesn't need to battle itself; simply bring it along and secure those victories.

Adding to the excitement, two new costumed Pokémon will join the fray: Nidoqueen and Nidoking, both sporting shiny new crowns. If luck is on your side, you might even encounter their Shiny versions. These crowned royals will headline three-star raids, while the one-star raids will feature Sneasel, Klink, and Pawniard.

ytIn the wild, you'll encounter frequent spawns of Pokémon like Slowpoke (which can yield a King’s Rock), Slakoth, Piplup, Combee, Snivy, and Litleo. Keep an eye out for Pawniard, which will appear more often if fortune favors you.

With double XP for evolving Pokémon, now is the perfect time to tackle that evolution backlog. Event-themed Field Research tasks and a catch-and-evolve Collection Challenge will help you earn extra XP, Stardust, and more opportunities to catch Pawniard. Trainers at Level 31 and above can look forward to guaranteed Candy XL for evolutions upon completing the challenge.

Don't overlook PokéStops during the event, as they will host event-themed Showcases where you can display your crown-worthy catches. To prepare for the event, be sure to check out the Pokémon Go Web Store for a variety of deals that will enhance your gameplay.
