As you prepare for the Sweet Discoveries event, get ready for the regal excitement of the upcoming Crown Clash event in Pokémon Go, scheduled from May 10th to 18th. This event promises a royal treatment with the debut of Kingambit, the Big Blade Pokémon, alongside costumed variants of Nidoqueen and Nidoking, and a host of other enticing rewards.
Kingambit's arrival in Pokémon Go marks a thrilling moment for players. To add this formidable Pokémon to your roster, you'll need to evolve Bisharp, but there's a unique twist to this evolution. Bisharp must be set as your buddy, and you'll have to defeat 15 Dark- or Steel-type Pokémon in Raid Battles. Bisharp doesn't need to participate in the battles; simply bring it along and secure those victories.
Adding to the royal festivities, Nidoqueen and Nidoking will make an appearance adorned in new, shiny crowns. These crowned Pokémon will not only be featured in three-star raids but also have the potential to appear in their Shiny forms. The one-star raids will showcase Sneasel, Klink, and Pawniard.
The wild will be bustling with frequent spawns of Pokémon such as Slowpoke, which may yield a King's Rock, along with Slakoth, Piplup, Combee, Snivy, and Litleo. Keep an eye out for the increased appearances of Pawniard as well.

Trainers at Level 31 and above will also receive guaranteed Candy XL for evolutions upon completing the challenge.
