Dynamax Drilbur has arrived in Pokémon GO, and this guide will walk you through catching this powerful Pokémon.

Shiny Dynamax Drilbur?
Solo Max Raid Battles?
Dynamax Drilbur is a 1-star Max Raid, making solo completion feasible. However, teaming up with friends simplifies the battle significantly.
Recommended Counters
Drilbur's Ground-type weakness makes Grass and Water-type Pokémon ideal counters. While Ice-types are also effective, the current lack of Dynamax-capable Ice-types limits options.
Here are some top Dynamax Pokémon recommendations (using their evolved forms for maximum power, though 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 Pokémon to ensure a strong counter is always available. Remember to maximize your Max Moves for quicker victories.
Pokémon GO is available now on mobile devices.
