Catch Dynamax Drilbur in Pokémon GO: A Comprehensive Guide
Dynamax Drilbur has arrived in Pokémon GO! This guide provides a step-by-step approach to catching 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. Increased appearance rates during the Simply Groundbreaking event (November 15th - 8 PM local time on November 17th) provided ample opportunities to encounter it. After the event, it will continue to appear in Max Raids, albeit less frequently, likely joining the regular rotation at Power Spots and during Max Mondays.
Shiny Dynamax Drilbur?
Solo Max Raid Battles?
Dynamax Drilbur is a 1-star Max Raid, making solo battles feasible. However, teaming up with friends significantly increases your chances of success.
Recommended Counters
Drilbur is a Ground-type Pokémon. Therefore, Grass and Water-type Pokémon are highly effective counters. Ice-types are also super effective, but currently lack Dynamax forms in Pokémon GO.
Here are some top Dynamax Pokémon recommendations (using their evolved forms for maximum power):
| 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 Dynamax Pokémon to ensure a strong counter for any situation. Remember to maximize your Max Move levels for a quick victory.
Pokémon GO is available now on mobile devices.
