The Mimicry Pokemon, Tatsugiri, will make its first appearance in Pokemon GO during the 2025 Water Festival, which kicks off July 15 and runs through July 20. And during this festival, a lot of players will be looking forward to the Gigantamax Lapras Max Battle Day.
Luckily, there's a way to add a Dynamax Passimian to your team in Pokemon GO so that you'll have a better chance of taking down the Kantonian Pokemon, which is what the Gigantamax Lapras Lead Up Timed Research is for!
