All Gigantamax Pokemon in Pokemon GO

Gigantamax Pokemon can be very helpful in Max Raids, but which ones can you catch in Pokemon GO?

Updated March 21, 2026, by Lucas Simons: Memories in Motion is the current season of Pokemon GO, and with it, new Dynamax Pokemon have arrived to claim a place among the ranks of this tier list. With the recent addition of Dynamax Ho-Oh and Regice, the balance of power has shifted slightly. Check out the latest changes to the tier lists below.

Pokemon GO Dynamax & Gigantamax Tier List

Let us begin this analysis with an explanation of this classification. The rank goes from S (Superior) to D (the lowest of the rank) and a plus sign (+) next to the Pokémon name means that this Pokémon can be considered a little higher depending on the circumstances, or that it has even more utility despite being at the maximum rank.

Stats are graded according to Max Move Power, and each entry includes the best moveset for said Pokemon, and max stat values of 100& (Perfect IVs). So, without further ado, let's take a look at the strongest Dynamax and Gigantamax Pokémon.

Dynamax Pokémon have their overall stats and size greatly boosted, although they retain their original forms. In the meantime, Giant max Pokemon not only get more power, stats and size, but also get a new form and get a G-Max Move.

S-Tier Dynamax Pokémon

The Pokemon listed below are considered S-Tier in terms of usefulness in Dynamax/Gigantamax Raids, and are some of the preferred picks of the current meta.

Pokémon	Role	Statistics	Best Moveset
Crowned Sword Zacian (+)	Attacker	5629 CP – 332 ATK – 240 DEF – 192 HP	Metal Claw / Behemoth Blade
Crowned Shield Zamazenta (+)	Tank	4717 CP – 250 ATK – 292 DEF – 192 HP	Metal Claw / Behemoth Bash
Gigantamax Inteleon	Attacker	3351 CP – 262 ATK – 142 DEF – 172 HP	Pound/ G-Max Hydrosnipe
Gigantamax Rillaboom	Bulky attacker	3758 CP – 239 ATK – 168 DEF – 225 – HP	Scratch / G-Max Drum Solo
Gigantamax Cinderace	Attacker	3412 CP – 238 ATK – 163 DEF – 190 HP	Fire Spin / G-Max Fireball
Gigantamax Gangs	Attacker	3254 CP – 261 ATK – 149 DEF – 155 HP	Lick / G-Max Terror
Gigantamax Charizard	Attacker	3266 CP – 223 ATK – 173 DEF – 186 HP	Dragon Breath / G-Max Wildfire

Dynamax Blissey	Tank	3117 CP – 129 ATK – 169 DEF – 496 HP	Pound / Psychic

Theoretically, Eternamax Eternatus would be the strongest Dragon-type Pokemon, and also the strongest Dynamax form in the game. Unfortunately, this Pokemon is impossible to collect, as it was only an Event Boss during the Pokemon GO Fest: Max Finale Event.

C- Tier Dynamax Pokemon

C-Tier Dynamax Pokemon are considered trash Pokémon GO Dynamax Raids, still, some like Articuno, Suicune and Tsareena have other tools. Players should not invest too much Stardust and Candy on them.
