Dynamax Drilbur has arrived in Pokémon GO! This guide details how to catch this powerful Pokémon, including optimal strategies and counter suggestions.
Dynamax Drilbur's Debut
Dynamax Drilbur appeared in Pokémon GO Max Raids starting at 10 AM local time on Friday, November 15, 2024, as part of the Simply Groundbreaking event. Increased encounter rates lasted until 8 PM local time on Sunday, November 17. While encounter rates will decrease after the event, Dynamax Drilbur will likely remain available in Max Raids at Power Spots and during Max Mondays.
Shiny Dynamax Drilbur
Yes! A Shiny Dynamax Drilbur is a possibility after a successful Max Raid battle, making it a highly sought-after prize.
Solo Max Raids?
Dynamax Drilbur is a 1-star Max Raid, making solo completion feasible. However, teaming up with friends significantly increases your chances of success. Remember to utilize your strongest Dynamax Pokémon.
Recommended Counters
Drilbur's Ground-type weakness makes Grass and Water-type Pokémon ideal counters. Ice-type Pokémon are also effective, but currently, no Dynamax-capable Ice-types are available.
Here are some top Dynamax Pokémon recommendations (using their evolved forms for maximum effectiveness):
Pokémon | Suggested Moveset |
---|---|
![]() Dynamax Blastoise | Water Gun Hydro Cannon |
![]() Dynamax Venusaur | Vine Whip Frenzy Plant |
![]() Dynamax Rillaboom | Razor Leaf Grass Knot |
![]() Dynamax Inteleon | Water Gun Surf |
For optimal results, create a team of three Water and/or Grass-type Dynamax Pokémon to ensure a strong counter for any situation. Remember to maximize your Max Moves for quicker victories.
