Compare the best Max Battle attackers by type

Which moves should Dynamax Metang use in Max Battles?

Recommended moves

Psychic Attacker:Zen HeadbuttMax Mindstorm

Max Attack damage determines the ranking. When two movesets deal equal damage, we favor the Fast Attack that fills the Max Meter faster against the same neutral target.

What does the asterisk beside a move mean?

The recommended movesets above do not include legacy moves.

An asterisk (*) marks a legacy move. A recommended moveset may rely on one, so check how to get it before investing in that Pokémon. It may require an event, an Elite TM or another special method. Some legacy moves cannot be learned with an Elite TM. Excluding legacy moves can change the recommended moveset and ranking.

Why do some attackers use a Fast Attack of another type?

For Dynamax Pokémon, the Fast Attack normally determines the Max Attack type; Hidden Power produces Max Strike. Gigantamax Pokémon have a fixed G-Max Attack. Crowned Pokémon and Eternatus also use fixed special attacks. Changing their Fast Attack does not change that attack’s type.

How are Max Battle attackers ranked?

The default ranking uses Level 40 Pokémon with perfect 15/15/15 IVs and Level 3 Max Attacks against a neutral opponent, with no weather boost. Only Pokémon marked available in our data are included.

Should I only power up the highest-ranked attacker?

Not necessarily. A strong Max Battle team needs more than damage. You may also need Pokémon that withstand incoming attacks, use Max Guard to absorb hits or restore HP with Max Spirit.

What are Dynamax Metang’s strengths and weaknesses?

As a Steel and Psychic-type Pokémon, Dynamax Metang is weak to Dark, Fire, Ghost, and Ground-type moves.

What is Dynamax Metang’s maximum CP at Level 40 and Level 50?

Dynamax Metang’s maximum CP at Level 40 is 1721 CP and 1946 CP at Level 50.

Can Dynamax Metang be shiny in Pokémon GO?

Dynamax Metang can be Shiny in Pokémon GO ✨.
