Pokemon Sword and Shield: Everything you need to know about the Expansion Pass

#4. New Gigantamax Forms

Gigantamax Rillaboom, Cinderace and Inteleon

There will be plenty of new Gigantamax forms of some Pokemon. Starting with the final evolutions of the Galarian starters; Rillaboom, Cinderace and Inteleon are going to be receiving new Gigantamax forms with the Isle of Armor expansion.

The last Pokemon to get a Gigantamax form was Snorlax and you needed to meet certain requirements before you could Gigantamax it. By default, the Pokemon will just Dynamax and that is true even for the starters. We don't quite know if there are special requirements to Gigantamax the new Pokemon but that will soon become clear.

Blastoise and Venausaur are also going to receive a Gigantamax Form, just like how Charizard did. We could also get Blastoise and Venasaur from the Isle of Armor expansion.

So far, only the concept art has been released and we don't know how they will look in-game.
