Pokemon GO debuted numerous Dynamax Pokemon with the Max Battles and other related functions. Dynamax Pokemon are larger and have a red glow with red clouds over their head. These monsters have a boost in their prowess and can use Max Moves.
Pokemon GO players can get wild Dynamax Pokemon by winning against Power Spot Bosses or Max Battles. After getting a Dynamax Pokemon, you can teach it Max Moves. These moves are exclusive to Dynamax Pokemon and can level up the more you use them. But numerous other in-game elements must be collected to access these moves, and this guide details everything you need.
How To Unlock Max Moves In Pokemon GO?
Dynamax Pokemon are the only ones that can use the Max Moves. Unlike other in-game moves, you can level up the Max Moves and gain XP the more you use them. Remember that the requirement for accessing the Max Moves is a certain amount of Max Particles and Pokemon GOCandies. There are a total of 3 Max Moves that the Dynamax Pokemon can access:
- Fast Attack-based Attack: The first Max Move your Dynamax Pokemon can access is an attack based on the specific Pokemon’s Fast Attack.
- Max Spirit: The Max Spirit can heal the Pokemon and other monsters in your battle roster.
- Max Guard: The Max Guard acts as the shield against the attacks of the Power Spot Bosses.

Pokemon GO
players can only store a specific amount of Max Particles; there is a limit on daily collection amounts. Currently, the
Max Particle limit is 1,000
