Catch Dynamax Drilbur in Pokémon GO: A Comprehensive Guide
Dynamax Drilbur has arrived in Pokémon GO, and this guide will walk you through capturing this powerful Pokémon.
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 appearance rates lasted until 8 PM local time on Sunday, November 17. After the event, Dynamax Drilbur will continue to appear in Max Raids, albeit less frequently, at Power Spots and potentially 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 for dedicated collectors.
Solo Max Raid Battles?
Dynamax Drilbur is a 1-star Max Raid, making solo completion feasible. However, teaming up with friends significantly increases your chances of success.
Recommended Counters
Drilbur is a Ground-type Pokémon, making Grass- and Water-type Pokémon ideal counters. While Ground is also weak to Ice, currently no Dynamax-capable Ice-types are available.
Here are some top Dynamax Pokémon recommendations (using their evolved forms for maximum power, but less evolved versions may still suffice):
| 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 is always available. Remember to maximize your Max Moves for a quicker victory.
Pokémon GO is available now on mobile devices.
