We’re excited to see new Pokémon appearing in Max Battles! Duraludon is now available in Pokémon GO.
The next Pokémon GO event, Steel Skyline, will highlight Dynamax Duraludon! Players can also participate in Global Challenges and find lots of Steel-type Pokémon to catch.
Duraludon is a Pokémon with a Steel and Dragon typing, known for its sleek, metallic body. It’s built from a unique, lightweight metal that makes it surprisingly quick and nimble in fights.
Currently, Duraludon’s attacking power hasn’t been fully evaluated, but its unique type combination gives it resistance to many different attacks.
If you’re thinking about using Dynamax Duraludon in Max Battles, here’s what you need to know about it during the Steel Skyline event.
How to get Dynamax Duraludon in Pokémon GO
During the Steel Skyline event, you can find and battle a powerful Dynamax Duraludon in four-star Max Raid Battles. You also have a chance to earn one as a reward for finishing certain Field Research and Timed Research tasks.
You can beat Dynamax Duraludon in a four-star Max Raid Battle by yourself, but it’s challenging and requires a strong, well-prepared team because it’s resistant to many types of attacks.
We suggest bringing a strong player along to help you with this Max Raid Battle. Plus, you might even be lucky enough to find a Shiny Dynamax Duraludon!
