How To Get Dynamax Drilbur in Pokemon GO

Dynamax Drilbur Arrives in Pokémon GO: A Comprehensive Guide

Dynamax Drilbur has burrowed its way into Pokémon GO, and this guide will help you successfully capture this powerful Pokémon.

Dynamax Drilbur's Debut

Dynamax Drilbur appeared in Pokémon GO starting at 10 AM local time on Friday, November 15, 2024, as part of the Simply Groundbreaking event. It had increased appearance rates in Max Battles until 8 PM local time on Sunday, November 17. After the event, it will continue to appear in Max Battles, but less frequently, likely joining the regular rotation at Power Spots and during Max Mondays.

Shiny Dynamax Drilbur?

Yes! A Shiny Dynamax Drilbur is a possibility after winning a Max Battle. This makes it a highly sought-after prize for dedicated collectors.

Solo Max Battles?

Dynamax Drilbur is a 1-star Max Battle, making solo completion achievable. However, teaming up with friends simplifies the process. Utilizing your strongest Dynamax Pokémon and exploiting type advantages significantly boosts your chances of victory and capture.

Recommended Counters

Drilbur's Ground-type weakness makes Grass and Water-type Pokémon ideal counters. While Ice-type Pokémon are also effective, the lack of currently available Dynamax Ice-types limits their use in Max Battles.

Here are some top Dynamax Pokémon recommendations (using their evolved forms for maximum power, but less evolved versions might still suffice):

Pokemon	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 Pokémon to ensure a strong replacement if one Pokémon faints. Remember to maximize your Max Moves for a quicker victory.

With this strategy, capturing Dynamax Drilbur should be straightforward, even for solo players. Good luck, trainers!

Pokémon GO is available now on mobile devices.
