Soloing Dynamax Drilbur Max Battles

Dynamax Drilbur is a 1-star Max Battle, making solo victories achievable. However, teaming up with friends can significantly increase your chances of success. Remember to utilize your strongest Dynamax Pokémon and exploit type advantages.

Recommended Counters for Dynamax Drilbur

Drilbur's Ground-type weakness makes Grass and Water-type Pokémon ideal counters. Ice-types are also effective, but the lack of currently available Dynamax Ice-types limits their use in Max Battles.

Here are some top Dynamax Pokémon recommendations (using their evolved forms for optimal power, but less evolved forms may still suffice):

Pokémon	Suggested Moveset
Dynamax Blastoise	Water Gun Hydro Cannon
Dynamax Venusaur	Vine Whip Frenzy Plant
Dynamax Rillaboom	Razor Leaf Grass Knot
Dynamax Inteleon	Water Gun Surf

For optimal results, create a team of three Water and/or Grass-type Dynamax Pokémon to ensure a strong counter is always available. Remember to maximize your Max Moves for quick victories.
