Pokémon Go ‘Max Out: Finale’ event guide
Pokémon Go is wrapping up the season with a “Max Out: Finale” event that runs from Nov. 27 until Dec. 1.
The event features a ton of bonuses, including a halved egg hatching distance, bonus XP from raids, and an increased remote raid pass limit.
It also debuts Galarian Corsola, who can also be found shiny, if you’re super lucky. The original Johto Corsola is a regional Pokémon, so if you’re missing it from your Pokédex, grabbing a Galarian Corsola will fill in its entry.
This event also concludes the “Galar Calling” Special Research.
Below, we list out all the perks and bonuses for Pokémon Go’s “Max Out: Finale” event, along with details for the paid Timed Research and event ticket.
Is the Max Out Finale ticket for raid bonuses worth it?
For $10, you’ll get the following for the duration of the event:
- Five free raid passes from spinning gym discs every day
- 5,000 bonus XP for raids (in addition to the event’s bonus 5,000 for a total for 10,000 XP per raid)
- 3 additional candy per catch in five-star raids
- 1 additional candy XL per catch in five-star raids
If you plan on raiding every day, then yes, this ticket is worth it for the raid passes alone. If you’re not planning on raiding Zacian, Zamazenta, Regieleki, or Regidrago, then its value decreases. Only buy this ticket if you plan on going hard in the raids.
