Gigantamax Rillaboom's Tier Ranking & Meta Analysis

Read meta analysis

Gigantamax Rillaboom Max Battles

Gigantamax Rillaboom is the leader in Max Grass-type damage, as this Pokémon is not only the strongest damage dealer but also the tankiest of the lot.

Its 0.5s Fast Move Scratch helps it function as a very efficient tank, though it's nowhere as bulky as DMax Blissey. Still, this is the Pokémon you need against Electric, Grass, Ground, and Water Max Bosses. It also helps GMax Rillaboom charge up its devastating GMax Drum Solo.

GMax Drum Solo does 350/400/450 DMG for level 1/2/3, but the damage at level 3 can be boosted to level 4 and 550 DMG with the Dynamax Cannon Adventure Effect of Eternatus.

It's a great Pokémon to lead with during Max Battles, being an excellent attacker and a decent tank.

🍃 GMax Rillaboom & other Grass types in Max Battles

GMax Rillaboom inflicts the highest Grass-type damage and is also the tankiest. Compared to GMax Venusaur, it does around 16% more damage and is around 5% tankier.

The GMax forms of Flapple & Appletun look the same, but GMax Flapple will become the second-best Grass-type Max attacker (extremely glassy though), edging past GMax Venusaur. GMax Appletun will trail behind all.

🔒 Is GMax Rillaboom future-proof?

Absolutely, there's no competition. As an attacker, it is the best, dealing the most damage. It is also tanky, making it arguably the most effective among the Galarian starters.

With Frenzy Plant added to its movepool, Rillaboom can function as a deadly Grass-type attacker in Raids as well. So, investing in a Rillaboom is a great decision.

    Gigantamax Rillaboom FAQ

    How good is Gigantamax Rillaboom in Max Battles?

    Gigantamax Rillaboom ranks #1 out of 16 in the Grass-type Max Battle attacker ranking, in SS 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 Gigantamax Rillaboom 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 Gigantamax Rillaboom’s strengths and weaknesses?

    As a Grass-type Pokémon, Gigantamax Rillaboom is weak to Bug, Fire, Flying, Ice, and Poison-type moves.

    What is Gigantamax Rillaboom’s maximum CP at Level 40 and Level 50?

    Gigantamax Rillaboom’s maximum CP at Level 40 is 3324 CP and 3758 CP at Level 50.

    Can Gigantamax Rillaboom be shiny in Pokémon GO?

    Gigantamax Rillaboom can be Shiny in Pokémon GO ✨.
