This event is aimed primarily at Pokémon GO fans, but also at moviegoers who want to enjoy a fun experience before watching a film. This partnership with UGC cinemas offers a unique interaction between the world of cinema and that of video games, transforming cinemas into veritable meeting centers for trainers. The arrival of Pokémon G-Max, already popular in the Pokémon Sword and Shield games, promises to bring together a large community of players around collaborative battles, while enriching the map of PokéStops and arenas in everyday locations.
The month-long event will feature immersive activities in several UGC cinemas.

In addition, Niantic France's Marketing Director, Moïse Kabongo, stressed the importance of this partnership in enhancing the gaming experience for trainers, by increasing the number of interactive locations across the country.
With the arrival of Pokémon Gigamax in Pokémon GO and this unprecedented partnership with UGC cinemas, players will have the opportunity to discover new features of the game while sharing convivial moments around titanic battles.
