Gigaton Hammer Makes Tinkaton a Steel Raid Star on April 2026 Community Day

During the April 11, 2026 Pokémon GO Community Day, evolve Tinkatink into Tinkaton during the event or within four hours after to learn Gigaton Hammer, a 300-power charged move that dramatically improves its PvE DPS. Despite a modest base Attack (155) and CP cap of 2544, Gigaton Hammer elevates Tinkaton into a notable steel raid attacker and a strong pick for Party Play, though it’s still not the best Fairy attacker compared with others. The article suggests focusing on steel raids and XL candy farming (with potential future moves like Metal Claw) for best long-term value. This is a solid Community Day pick for players chasing shinies, Candies, and a unique hammer-wielding Steel attacker.

Flamigo's Meta Edge: A Spice Pick Worth the Grind

Flamigo, a Gen 9 Flying/Fighting Pokémon, is analyzed for Pokémon GO's current metagame. In PvE raids it underperforms compared with top Flying and Fighting attackers, while in PvP it offers spice via Double Kick, Upper Hand, and Brave Bird that can counter some meta threats, making it a potential anti-meta pick in Great League, but it's still outclassed in Ultra and Master Leagues. Grinding Flamigo may be worth mainly for an event Stardust bonus and for potential niche PvP uses; there is no signature move, only a Costar ability, and no guaranteed meta breakthrough. Bottom line: not a go-to raid pick, but a fun, spicy option for specialists and theme cups.

Rage Fist Annihilape Shakes Up Pokémon GO Community Day

Annihilape with Rage Fist debuts in Pokemon GO during Mankey Community Day on November 10, 2024. In PvP, Rage Fist is a 50 base power move that boosts the user's Attack, making Annihilape more viable in battles after previous nerfs. It offers better results compared to its old moveset. However, in PvE, Rage Fist doesn't significantly improve Annihilape's performance due to its limited Fast Attacks. To obtain Annihilape with Rage Fist, evolve Primeape during the event or use an Elite Charged TM later.
