Pokemon Go it's getting many new updates, adding many new features and now there's a brand new item that players can use to earn more rewards or have a better chance of catching Pokemon. Recently, Pokemon Go introduced Max Mondays, which take place every Monday.
Many other things have been introduced with this new weekly event, including a brand new item. Players can now earn and get a new item called Max Mushrooms. Dynamaxing is a completely new feature Pokemon Go that players can activate once they have collected a total of 250 Max Particles – after which players will gain access to Power Stops after driving a total of 2km within the current season. Max Battles are very similar to Raid Battles where players can battle up to four other players.

How to get Max mushrooms
Having a Dynmax Pokemon is really beneficial to the player as it helps give them a good boost in battles. Once the Pokemon uses Max, it transforms into a giant version of itself, dealing double the damage it normally does. Max Mushrooms are a new item that is used inside Pokemon Go. This item can only support the Pokémon it was used on and will not provide any support to anyone else around the player. Max Mushrooms gives the player double power during a certain amount of time given for each mushroom. Each of these gives the player a total of 30 minutes, each is also stackable so the player can use two to get an hour of boosts etc.
Max Mushrooms are a bit more difficult to obtain at the time of writing, as they are only available via in-frame purchase Pokemon Go in-game store. Players can purchase 1 Max Mushroom for a total of 400 coins or 3 Max Mushrooms for a total of 1000 coins. These items are slightly more expensive. However, sometimes they can also appear in event boxes or they can also be given away as part of event tickets, such as the Gigantamax Lapras Max Battle Day ticket which was $4.99 in total.
These are the only ways players can receive Max Mushrooms from now on – there is no way to get them for free. However, some players were given a free trial of Max Mushrooms for a total of 5 minutes. These 5 minutes should be enough to complete only one MAX battle that the player is trying to complete. Players will get a notification on their device to try it out, and from there they can try it out to see if they want to buy it for themselves.
Although not confirmed, there is still a high chance that Max Mushrooms will be rewarded for completing special research tasks and battling Pokemon or Grunts in the wild. That's all you need to know about how to get Max Mushrooms inside Pokemon Go.
