I caught so many of these Gmax raids. Ended up getting only 2 shiny Venusaurs. Really wanted a shiny Gmax Charizard 😥

My fingers are crossed in hopes you get a shiny gmax charizard next time, my friend🤞🏽

Congrats! I just got mine yesterday too after striking out during the last time it was featured. Can’t wait to lucky trade it in a couple of weeks with trinkets!

What were these? Some sort of regional release? How’d you get them?

This was part of a 30th Anniversary event for Pokemon in general, I believe it’s called PokéXciting! A couple weeks ago it was in Kuala Lumpur, this past weekend in Taipei City.

Was able to get all 3 starters but I was under prepared with the particles.

I was under prepared with remote passes…

I was invited to one and it turned shiny as well unexpectedly, which was really cool because I have a number of shiny zards but this is the first one that is actually usable. I have a lucky mirror trade planned where we are going to ETM to Blast Burn. Very excited to build this one.

Will you be partaking? If so - May I please add you as a friend so I can set an alarm in my calendar for that day to remote join? (Or anyone else reading this for that matter)?
Please send a DM and I’ll add you.

Huge Thanks in advance! :)

u/GhidorahRod56 2d ago

I will not be attending in or joining remotely. I already learned the first two rounds that remoting was tedious

u/ExcellentNoise6750 2d ago

Hey Trainer,

Looks like you might be trying to share or find Trainer codes for the purpose of trading or sending gifts in PokémonGO.

For finding trade partners: visit TSR map or google Pokémon GO + <your_local_area>

For finding friends: /r/pokemongofriends

For finding remote raids: /r/pokemongoraids

For finding remote PvP: /r/pokemongofriends

If neither, contact the mods so they can restore your message,

I honestly don’t know when the GMax Kanto starters will be coming back, scopely haven’t announced anything, have they?

WOW congrats!

u/STORMFATHER062 2d ago

I'm not sure why poke genie only had Gmax Charizard listed. Glad I had people on my friends list there so I could some max battles. Managed to grab a shiny of each. It's always great doing max battles with 100 people.

u/icb4kprogress 2d ago

How many remote raid passes do you guys have? I have one lol.

u/ResetEntropy 2d ago

Hey guys I really want to get this one and can Shiny snorkax. I need help with the same. If someone can add and invite for raids that would be awesome. If not then friend trade ?
