Beldum
Dynamax
Dynamax Beldum is a Tier 3 Max Battle in Pokémon GO. It will cost 400 Max Particles to participate in this Max Battle, which will only be consumed if you defeat Dynamax Beldum successfully. Dynamax Beldum can be shiny from Max Battles.
Being a Steel and Psychic type, it is weak to the Dark, Fire, Ghost and Ground types.
Beldum can be caught with the following CP values:
- 513 – 558 CP at Level 20, no weather boost
- 642 – 697 CP at Level 25 with Snow or Windy weather boost
We highly recommend using a minimum of two Dynamax Charizards if you intend to solo this Max Boss, as it is much more difficult than a Tier 1 Max Battle. It is possible to use one level 40 Dynamax Charizard to defeat it, or two lower level Dynamax Charizard if you haven’t powered them up fully yet.
Dynamax Beldum Counters
Dynamax Beldum battles cost 400 MP and give 7500 EXP as a reward. The difficulty is higher than previous Dynamax Raids, and it requires two strong Fire-types, aka two D-Max Charmanders evolved into Charizards to defeat easily. You can only use Dynamax Pokémon to battle Dynamax Pokémon.

Max Battle Information
Max Battles can be participated in in-person only, at Power Spots, which are easily identified on the map by the purple marking and large ‘X’ above them.
You can challenge Max Battles with up to 4 people, including yourself. Each person can bring up to 3 Dynamax Pokémon in their team, but participation is possible with just one Dynamax Pokémon.
Only Dynamax Pokémon can participate in this Max Battle. Existing Pokemon are not eligible.
Max Battles are turn based, differing from both raiding and GO Battle League. More strategy will need to be implemented for harder Max Bosses.
In a Max Battle, tap the screen to use Fast Attacks, and build up energy to use Charged Attacks as usual. Attacking will also fill up the Max Meter at the top of the screen.
When three lines appear above a Pokemon’s head, it means it is being targeted by the Max Battle Boss. You can avoid this by swiping to Dynamax, you need to fill up the Max Meter at the top of the screen to its maximum, and the meter fills up by swiping towards an attack or the Max Charge (purple button) that appears from time to time.
In battle you will see a Max Meter. When it reaches its maximum, your Pokémon will automatically Dynamax your Pokémon. Keep an eye on the meter! Once it’s full, your Pokémon will Dynamax for 3 turns!
Once Dynamaxed you will be given the option to use any of your unlocked Max Moves, if battling harder difficulty bosses as a group, plan your use of your attack, Shield and Spirit moves together.
If you spot energy icons on the battlefield, swipe to collect them and fill up your meter even faster.
You can Dynamax more than once in a Max Battle, and will automatically Dynamax once your Max Meter refills.
If all of your Pokémon faint while battling a three-star or higher Power Spot Boss, you can still help your allies by cheering for your them so that their meters fill faster.
