Solo Max Battles?
Dynamax Drilbur is a 1-star Max Battle, making solo completion achievable. However, teaming up with friends can significantly simplify the process. Remember to utilize your strongest Dynamax Pokémon and exploit type advantages for a quicker victory.
Suggested 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 recommended Dynamax Pokémon and movesets:
| 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 a faster victory.
