With the arrival ofPokemon GO’sMax Out Season, the introduction of Dynamax & Gigantamax Pokemon and Power Spots and Max Battles has added a new element of gameplay for Trainers to enjoy.These Max Battles feature Dynamax Bosses, similar to Raid Bosses, which the player can take on in battle and potentially even capture to add to their collection. These Max Battles take place at in-game objectives on yourPokemon GOmap, known as Power Spots.
During theMax Out Season, an event known as Max Mondays has been recurring. Max Mondays are a short 1-hour period in which all nearby Power Spots will be taken over by a certain Max Battle Boss, enabling players to farm encounters and captures with this one particular monster to gain some useful XP and resources or hunt for one with the best-battling potential.
OnNovember 2, 2024, Squirtle will be taking over during Max Monday, so Trainers can benefit from preparing in advance. Everything players need to get set for this event has been included below, including a breakdown ofSquirtle’s core weaknesses and resistancesand the best Pokemon to bring with you to counter theKantonian starter.
Pokemon GO Max Monday: Dynamax Squirtle Max Battle Guide
InPokemon GO, the Squirtle Max Monday event occurs onNovember 2, 2024, and will run between6 PM and 7 PM local time. During this timeframe, all nearbyPower Spotsacross the map in your game will become occupied with Squirtle Bosses, meaning Trainers have the best possible chance to go up against this Water Type and capture it by repetition.
Squirtle Weaknesses & Resistances
InPokemon GO, Squirtle is a pure Water Type, meaning its weaknesses and resistances are rather straightforward.Squirtle is resistance to Ice, Steel, Water, and Fire Types, but is weak to Grass andElectric Types- so Trainers should aim to utilize monsters with these attributes when going up against Dynamax Squirtle.
Due to theWeather Boost mechanic, Squirtle receives increased power during Rainy weather. Trainers may want to keep this in mind and potentially avoid battles in such locations.
Dynamax Squirtles Counters
InPokemon GO’sMax Battles, players will be limited to only using other Dynamax or Gigantamax Pokemon, which restricts the monsters you’re able to bring with you for this event. However, there are still a few solid contenders to consider when it comes to taking Squirtle down with the most ease.
