Pokémon GO Replay: GO Bigger Event

Pokémon GO is bringing back four Gigantamax Kanto bosses on Saturday, April 25, in a three-hour Replay: GO Bigger event from 2 p.m. to 5 p.m. local time. (pokemongohub.net) The returning lineup is Gigantamax Venusaur, Charizard, Blastoise, and Gengar, all appearing in Max Battles during the event window. Pokémon GO Hub’s weekly calendar also lists the event in the game’s April 20-26 schedule. (pokemongohub.net 1) (pokemongohub.net 2) Gigantamax Pokémon are the oversized battle forms tied to Pokémon GO’s Max Battle system, which gives players a separate boss format from standard raids. This event is a replay, meaning Niantic is rerunning an earlier Kanto-focused Gigantamax window instead of debuting a new boss. (pokemongohub.net 1) (pokemongohub.net 2) The timing puts the event in the middle of Pokémon GO’s “Memories in Motion” season, which runs from March 3, 2026, to June 2, 2026. That season has leaned heavily on rotating event blocks, including repeat chances at past content. (pokemongohub.net) (pokemongohub.net) For players who missed earlier Gigantamax appearances, the replay offers another shot at four of the franchise’s best-known first-generation starters and ghosts in one session. For players who already have them, the draw is concentrated boss access in a single local-time window. (pokemongohub.net) Pokémon GO Hub says trainers can join in parks or remotely, reflecting the game’s mix of in-person gathering and at-distance play during limited-time battle events. The event page describes the format as a “three-hour long G-Max battle spree” on April 25. (pokemongohub.net) The replay lands one week after Pokémon GO’s April 13-19 schedule included a second-chance Riolu Hatch Day, another sign that April’s calendar is built around reruns as well as new releases. Niantic has used that pattern to keep older event content in circulation during the current season. (pokemongohub.net) (pokemongohub.net) For trainers planning around the weekend, the key detail is simple: the Kanto Gigantamax bosses are back for one afternoon, and the window closes at 5 p.m. local time.
