Pokémon GO: Master Machop with Max Mondays

Author : Lily Feb 11,2025

Pokemon GO's Max Monday event returns on January 6th, 2025, featuring the Fighting-type Machop! This one-hour event (6 PM to 7 PM local time) sees Machop dominating Power Spots, offering a limited window to battle and capture this Dynamax Pokemon. Preparation is key, so let's explore Machop's weaknesses and the best counter strategies.

Machop Max Monday Event

Machop's Strengths and Weaknesses

Machop, a pure Fighting-type, boasts resistances to Rock, Dark, and Bug-type attacks. However, its significant weaknesses lie against Flying, Fairy, and Psychic-type moves. Avoid using Rock, Dark, or Bug-type Pokemon; instead, prioritize those with Flying, Fairy, or Psychic typing.

Top Machop Counters in Max Battles

Remember, Max Battles restrict you to using your own Dynamax Pokemon. While options are limited compared to standard Raids, several excellent choices exist:

  • Beldum/Metang/Metagross: This evolutionary line offers a strong Psychic secondary typing, making them top contenders. Their overall battle prowess further solidifies their position as a premier choice.

  • Charizard: Charizard's Flying secondary type provides a type advantage against Machop. Combined with its inherent power, it's another excellent option.

  • Other Powerful Dynamax Pokemon: While lacking a direct type advantage, powerful fully evolved Pokemon like Dubwool, Greedent, Blastoise, Rillaboom, Cinderace, Inteleon, or Gengar possess the raw power to overcome Machop.

Prepare your strongest Dynamax Pokemon with the right type advantage and get ready to conquer Machop on Max Monday!
