Future Developments:

Rumors point towards the introduction of Power Spots next month – locations ideal for Max Battles, catching Dynamax Pokémon, and collecting Max Particles. While Niantic hasn't confirmed this, it's an exciting prospect.

According to Eurogamer, Pokémon GO senior producer John Funtanilla hinted that some Dynamax-capable Pokémon will also be able to Mega Evolve. The possibility of Gigantamax Pokémon remains unconfirmed, though it was teased at Pokémon Worlds. Niantic promises further details on Dynamax battles soon.
