Dynamax Moltres is the third Legendary were seeing in Max BattlesforPokmon Go. Its making its debut during Max Monday on Feb. 3 from 6-7 p.m. and will be available until Feb. 10 when the Max Battle rotation swaps.While Dynamax Moltres isnt as hard as the very tough Gigantamax battles weve seen in the past, it can be tricky as theres not many Dynamax Pokmon to use to counter it.Below, we list out some general Max Battle tips and counters for Dynamax Moltres inPokmon Go.Dynamax Moltres weaknessMoltres is fire- and flying-type, so it only has two weaknesses to exploit: rock-, water-, and electric-type moves. Just like with its siblings Articuno and Zapdos, the problem is that there arent any Dynamax Pokmon that have rock-type Dynamax moves (as of this writing).There are actually quite a few water-type Dynamax and Gigantamax Pokmon, so you should have a pretty decent spread to use for this.Dynamax Moltres best countersWith the above in mind, there are a few counters to bring to Moltres. We recommend the following to focus onoffensivemoves:Gigantamax Kingler with BubbleGigantamax/Dynamax Blastoise with Water GunGigantamax Toxtricity with SparkDynamax Inteleon with Water GunDynamax Zapdos with Thunder ShockMoltres doesnt have complex movesets like its siblings, so you dont have to worry too much about conflicting typing. The only concern here would be using Zapdos if Moltres has Ancient Power, which can hurt it quite a bit.As for defense, you should bring the following with Max Guard and Max Spirit:Gigantamax/Dynamax Blastoise with Water GunMetagross with Zen HeadbuttExcadrill with Metal ClawThese Pokmon are just meant to tank hits from Moltres, while they quickly charge up the max meter with their fast moves. Blastoise is preferred, but Excadrill and Metagross can both hold their weight.Even if you dont have these powered up, consider just bringing thestrongestDynamax Pokmon you have. If you have a maxed out Dynamax Gengar and your Dynamax Sobble isnt evolved to Inteleon (and you dont have the means to power it up), just bring your Gengar.General Max Battle tipsIf youve been struggling in Max Battles, here are some general tips to survive and make sure youre an asset to your team. While Gigantamax Battles are tough, a Legendary Max Battle shouldnt be as tough as that. You can slack a little, but you should still heed our advice:Make sure you have enough players.High-efficiency players with maxed out investments will likely be able to solo Moltres, but this isnt 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 Pokmon, the Dynamax Legendary Pokmon have a max party size of four (rather than 40).Dont sleep on Max Spirit and Max Guard. Teams work best when theres a variety of moves, not just maxed-out attacks. Each player should bring Pokmon 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.Remember to swap to super effective moves when its time to Dynamax. ForDynamax Pokmon, 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 Pokmon that will deal super effective damage to your target before Dynamaxing, if you can.Focus on your fast moves. 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!Level up a few mons, but you dont have to go too hard. Depending on your group size, you absolutely do not need to max out all your Dynamax Pokmon to level 40-50. While this will make it easier on the rest of your group, if this isnt an investment you can make, you dont have to stress about it. Power things up as high as you can afford to, but dont fret if you dont have a maxed out Pokmon.That all being said,make sure to come as prepared as you can be. This is a team effort and theres a chance that a full group of four can still fail. Do not just bring your unleveledDynamax Woolooexpecting a free ride to a powerful Pokmon. (After all, ifeveryonedoes that, then you certainly wont clear the battle.) Again, you dont have to completely max out your Pokmon, but it will be better for everyone involved if you bring something helpful to the table.Keep your eye out for a shiny Moltres!If you clear the raid, there is a chance that the Moltres you catch will be shiny which also means itll be a guaranteed catch. Use a Pinap Berry to score extra candy if you get lucky enough to find a sparkly Moltres.
