Can you reverse Gigantamax?

To answer the question directly, reversing Gigantamax is indeed possible, but it comes with a significant condition: feeding a Gigantamax Pokémon Max Soup will remove its Gigantamax ability, making it Dynamax normally instead. This process essentially reverses the Gigantamax form, but it’s crucial to understand the implications and the context in which this can be done, including the effects on the Pokémon’s abilities and battle performance.
