It\u2019ll be featured during a Max Battle Weekend event, running from <strong>March 15 at 5 a.m. until March 16 at 9 p.m.<\/strong> in your local time.<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-none\">During this event, you\u2019ll be able to claim more Max Particles each day (up to 1,600 from 800), you\u2019ll get more Max Particles from Power Spots, the amount you have to walk to get particles will be cut down to 1\/4, and Power Spots will refresh more often.<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-none\">From March 10 until the Max Battle Weekend ends, the particle cost to power up Max Moves has also been cut to 3\/4 the usual amount, so it\u2019s a great time to build some counters.<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-none\">Below, we list out some general <a href=\"https:\/\/www.polygon.com\/pokemon-go-guide\/458543\/max-battle-schedule-dynamax\">Max Battle<\/a> tips and counters for Dynamax Raikou in&nbsp;<em>Pok\u00e9mon Go<\/em>.<\/p>\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\" \/>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-none\" id=\"general-max-battle-tips\">Dynamax Raikou weakness<\/h2>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-none\">Raikou is a solo electric-type Pok\u00e9mon, meaning it only has one weakness: <strong>ground-type moves<\/strong>. There is a glaringly obvious best choice when it comes to taking down Dynamax Raikou because of this, but we\u2019ll get to that in the next section.<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-none\">All of that said, Raikou will take less damage from flying-, steel-, and electric-type moves, so try not to bring Pok\u00e9mon with those moves, unless you\u2019re using the fast moves to build up your max meter.<\/p>\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\" \/>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-none\" id=\"general-max-battle-tips\">Dynamax Raikou best counters<\/h2>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-none\">There is a definitive answer to the best counter for Dynamax Raikou, and it\u2019s <strong>Excadrill<\/strong>. As I\u2019ve noted in the past, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.polygon.com\/pokemon-go-guide\/479340\/dynamax-drilbur-max-battle\">Excadrill remains one of the best investments<\/a> for Max Battles, and now is no exception.<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-none\">Here\u2019s a wider, more specific list of best attackers:<\/p>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Dynamax Excadrill <\/strong>with Mud Shot<\/li>\n<li><strong>Gigantamax Venusaur <\/strong>with Vine Whip<\/li>\n<li><strong>Dynamax Venusaur<\/strong> with Vine Whip<\/li>\n<li><strong>Gigantamax Gengar<\/strong> with Shadow Claw<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-none\">Note that Raikou can have Shadow Ball as part of its moveset, putting Gengar at risk. If it does have this, make sure to swap your Gengar out and allow something else to tank. (You shouldn\u2019t really be using Gengar to tank moves to begin with, but it\u2019s worth pointing out that you should be extra careful here.)<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-none\">For tanks, you\u2019ll want to bring one or two of the following:<\/p>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Dynamax Excadrill <\/strong>with Mud Shot<\/li>\n<li><strong>Gigantamax Venusaur <\/strong>with Vine Whip<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-none\">There aren\u2019t many strong other options, honestly. Most of the stronger attackers (like Charizard) or tanks (like Blastoise) will take increased damage from Raikou, so we\u2019re not working with <em>much<\/em> here, but Excadrill is such a strong counter that you don\u2019t really <em>need<\/em> a variety of options. You\u2019ll want to bring at least one Excadrill and then fill up your team with any of the other Pok\u00e9mon, if you got them.<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-none\">That being said, until the Max Battle weekend ends, <strong>there is a Timed Research that rewards you with a Dynamax Drilbur<\/strong>, alongside tons of Drilbur Candy and Max Particles to help you power up a Drilbur\/Excadrill. There isn\u2019t <em>too <\/em>much of an excuse as to why you wouldn\u2019t be able to bring one to the battle.<\/p>\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\" \/>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-none\" id=\"general-max-battle-tips\">General Max Battle Tips<\/h2>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-none\">If you\u2019ve been struggling in Max Battles, here are some general tips to survive \u2014 and make sure you\u2019re an asset to your team. While Gigantamax Battles are tough, a Legendary Max Battle shouldn\u2019t be&nbsp;<em>as<\/em>&nbsp;tough as that. You can slack a&nbsp;<em>little<\/em>, but you should still heed our advice:<\/p>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Make sure you have enough players.<\/strong>\u00a0High-efficiency players with maxed out investments will likely be able to solo Raikou, but this isn\u2019t going to be realistic for most people. Try to go at it with three other players for the highest chance of winning. Note that unlike Gigantamax Pok\u00e9mon, the Dynamax Legendary Pok\u00e9mon have a max party size of four (rather than 40).<\/li>\n<li><strong>Don\u2019t sleep on Max Spirit and Max Guard<\/strong>. Teams work best when there\u2019s a variety of moves, not just maxed-out attacks. Each player should bring Pok\u00e9mon with the defensive and healing moves unlocked as well. Max Guard will focus single-target damage towards you and reduce the damage taken and Max Spirit will heal the whole party, so these moves are really important to make sure your damage-dealers can keep dishing.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Remember to swap to super effective moves when it\u2019s time to Dynamax<\/strong>. For&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.polygon.com\/pokemon-go-guide\/449273\/dynamax-pokemon-get-catch-max-battles\">Dynamax Pok\u00e9mon<\/a>, their max moves are determined by whatever type their fast move is. This means if you have a Cryogonal with Frost Breath, it will know Max Hailstorm. A Gengar with Lick will know Max Phantasm. Take advantage of this and make sure to swap to a Pok\u00e9mon that will deal super effective damage to your target before Dynamaxing, if you can.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Focus on your fast moves<\/strong>. You want to spam your fast moves to build up that Dynamax meter and often times, using your charge move is actually a DPS loss when compared to the damage you could be doing with your max move will be. Spam those attacks!<\/li>\n<li><strong>Level up a few \u2018mons, but you don\u2019t have to go too hard<\/strong>. Depending on your group size, you absolutely do not need to max out all your Dynamax Pok\u00e9mon to level 40-50. While this will make it easier on the rest of your group, if this isn\u2019t an investment you can make, you don\u2019t have to stress about it. Power things up as high as you can afford to, but don\u2019t fret if you don\u2019t have a maxed out Pok\u00e9mon.<\/li>\n<li>All that said,\u00a0<strong>make sure to come as prepared as you can be<\/strong>. This is a team effort and there\u2019s a chance that a full group of four can still fail. Do not just bring your unleveled\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.polygon.com\/pokemon-go-guide\/447546\/to-the-max-special-research-quest-rewards\">Dynamax Wooloo<\/a>\u00a0expecting a free ride to a powerful Pok\u00e9mon. (After all, if\u00a0<em>everyone<\/em>\u00a0does that, then you certainly won\u2019t clear the battle.) Again, you don\u2019t have to completely max out your Pok\u00e9mon, but it will be better for everyone involved if you bring something helpful to the table.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Keep your eye out for a shiny Raikou!<\/strong>&nbsp;If you clear the raid, there is a chance that the Raikou you catch will be shiny \u2014 which also means it\u2019ll be a guaranteed catch. Use a Pinap Berry to score extra candy if you get lucky enough to find a sparkly Raikou.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/arcader.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/dynamax-raikou-counters-weakness-and-battle-tips-in-pokemon-go-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" data-has-syndication-rights=\"1\" data-caption=\"\" data-portal-copyright=\"\" \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.polygon.com\/pokemon-go-guide\/538377\/dynamax-raikou-counters-weakness-tips\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Raikou is joining the Max Battle hype in Pok\u00e9mon Go, allowing you to take it on and possibly catch one that can Dynamax.
