Pokemon GO Dynamax Latias or Dynamax Latios Max Battle Choice Guide

by

As a dedicated gamer, I’m super excited about the Pokemon GO Max Battle Weekend! This event offers an exceptional opportunity for us to catch some of the game’s top Legendaries – and they’ll be in their Dynamax forms: the legendary duo, Latias and Latios. However, we all know that Raid Passes aren’t unlimited, so it’s crucial to strategize which of these Pokemon we prioritize. You could go for one of each, but remember, if you want to maximize your Dynamax energy or pursue the elusive Perfect (Hundo) Latias or Latios, things might get a bit tricky.

In essence, delving into this manual equips Pokemon GO players with comprehensive insights about Dynamax Latias and Latios. Understanding their optimal move combinations, maximum Combat Power (CP), stats, strengths, and vulnerabilities empowers them to make informed decisions when deciding which of these Dynamax Legendaries they wish to specialize in during the ensuing event.

Should Pokemon GO players pick Dynamax Latias or Dynamax Latios?

To begin with, participants should be aware that the Pokemon GO Max Battle Weekend will take place from July 26, 6:00 AM, to July 27, 2025, 9 PM local time, providing players with approximately one and a half days to secure their preferred Dynamax Legendary. When deciding between Latias and Latios, several factors should be considered, such as their stats. Let’s examine each of them in detail.

In comparison to Dynamax Latios, Dynamax Latias is constructed with a greater emphasis on defense rather than offense, leading to a higher defensive stat. While it has slightly lower maximum Combat Power (CP), its defense is more robust. The attack repertoire of both Pokémon remains largely the same, including their Max Move: Max Wyrmwind. Notably, they share the same base stamina. However, Dynamax Latias’ superior defense makes it resistant to a wider range of attacks, earning it the role of tank within this pair. This trait is reminiscent of its Mega Latias form as well.

Contrastingly, Dynamax Latios boasts greater speed and power, with a superior Attack stat, but a weaker Defense compared to Latias. When using Max Wyrmwind, Dynamax Latios deals more Self-Targeted (STAB) damage. To counter this, consider bringing defensive Max Pokemon that are resistant to Dragon-type moves, such as Dynamax Hattene. Additionally, it’s worth noting that in its regular form, Dynamax Latios can reach a higher Combat Power (CP) than Latias.

The movesets for the two Pokemon are quite alike, featuring Dragon Breath and Psychic as their main combinations. However, it’s essential for players to choose the one they believe fits best in their team. Dynamax Latias can serve as a sturdy shield in upcoming Dynamax Battles, while Dynamax Latios delivers significantly higher total damage and makes an excellent Dragon-type attacker. Both Pokemon will prove valuable when the Dynamax Eternatus Max Battle debuts in Pokemon GO, so having both would be advantageous for trainers.
