      Dynamax Malamar FAQ

      How good is Dynamax Malamar in Max Battles?

      Dynamax Malamar ranks #7 out of 14 in the Flying-type Max Battle attacker ranking, in B Tier.

      Dynamax Malamar ranks #16 out of 32 in the Psychic-type Max Battle attacker ranking, in B Tier.

      The score is damage from one Max Attack, not DPS. A real boss’s Defense and weaknesses change the damage and may change the order. This ranking does not estimate total battle time, faints or team performance.

      Compare the best Max Battle attackers by type

      Which moves should Dynamax Malamar use in Max Battles?

      Recommended moves

      Max Attack damage determines the ranking. When movesets deal equal damage, faster Max Meter generation breaks the tie. The recommended Fast Attack therefore helps charge the meter; it is not necessarily the hardest-hitting Fast Attack. The charging comparison uses 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, which may require an event, an Elite TM or another special method. Some legacy moves cannot be taught with an Elite TM.

      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 these attackers ranked?

      The default ranking uses Level 40 Pokémon, perfect IVs and level-3 Max Attacks against a neutral target, with no weather boost. Only released Pokémon are included.

      Should I build only the highest-ranked attacker?

      No. This list helps choose damage dealers. A Max Battle team can also need Pokémon that resist the boss’s attacks or restore HP. Use the boss’s Max Battle counters page to compare attackers, tanks and healers for that encounter.

      What are Dynamax Malamar’s strengths and weaknesses?

      As a Dark and Psychic-type Pokémon, Dynamax Malamar is especially weak against Bug-type moves, and weak against Fairy-type moves.

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

      Dynamax Malamar’s maximum CP at Level 40 is 2359 CP and 2667 CP at Level 50.

      Can Dynamax Malamar be shiny in Pokémon GO?

      Dynamax Malamar can be Shiny in Pokémon GO ✨.
