Tips for Success
To maximize your chances of success, remember these key strategies:
- Use Max Mushrooms: These temporarily double your Dynamax/Gigantamax Pokémon's damage, significantly aiding in Max Battles. You can use multiple in a row, but this won't stack the damage multiplier.
- Team Up: Use Campfire to find Max Battles and team up with other Trainers for a collaborative advantage.
