In Pokémon GO you can currently receive a Gigantamax Pokémon. But which one is worth it the most?
Yesterday the Pokémon Presents took place. During this event, a new promo code was released for Pokémon GO that you can redeem for free. This gives you the opportunity to receive a free, limited research.
As part of this research, you can obtain a Gigantamax Pokémon: Cinderace, Gardevoir, or Inteleon. But which of the Pokémon is worth it the most? We have taken a look at this for you.
3 strong Gigantamax Pokémon to choose from
How strong are the Pokémon as attackers? All 3 Pokémon, which are the final evolutions of the starters from Generation 8, are strong attackers in their respective types. Gardevoir is a Grass attacker, Cinderace is a Fire attacker, and Inteleon is a Water type.
Each of the individual Pokémon is among the strongest attackers in the area of Gigantamax Pokémon. From this perspective, you can’t go wrong with any of the 3 Pokémon, no matter which one you choose. However, Inteleon has the highest attack stat of the 3 Pokémon.
How good are the Pokémon as defenders? If you want to use one of the Pokémon as a defender, there are bigger differences here. While Inteleon has the highest attack stat of the 3 Pokémon, the values in the areas of defense and HP are lower than those of the other two Pokémon.
Cinderace can position itself in the middle of the 3 Pokémon, and Gardevoir is the best of the 3 Pokémon for the defender role. So if you’re generally just looking for the strongest defender for your team, you should especially take a closer look at Gardevoir or Cinderace.
Which Pokémon is the most worth it now? In summary, all 3 Pokémon are strong attackers, although Inteleon has a slight edge here. As defenders, Gardevoir and Cinderace are somewhat better.
However, it is also important to consider what your Dyna and Gigantamax team looks like so far. For example, if you already have strong attackers of the Fire and Water types, you should rather consider taking Gardevoir to complement your current team with a strong attacker and cover more types.
In addition to the new code, there are currently many other contents, events, and raids waiting for you in Pokémon GO. If you want to know exactly what they are and when they take place, feel free to take a look at our overview of all events in July 2025 in Pokémon GO.
