A new trailer for Pokémon Sword and Shield has revealed several new characters and Pokémon for the Switch games that come out on November 15, but it also reveals a new feature. Gigantamax turns some Pokémon huge for a limited time.
If this sounds familiar, that’s because we’ve already known about Dynamax. This similarly-named ability also makes Pokémon temporarily bigger. So, what’s the difference? Gigantamax also makes small alterations to the Pokémon’s appearance. It also gives them access to a special attack called a G-Max Move. This, I guess, is somehow different from the Max Moves that Dynamax Pokémon get. Also, Gigantamax can only be used on a select number of pocket monsters, while Dynamax is available to most of them.
