Pokemon GO Max Monday: Conquer Machop on January 6th, 2025!
Pokemon GO's Max Monday event returns, featuring the Fighting-type Machop on January 6th, 2025, from 6 PM to 7 PM local time. This one-hour event sees Machop dominating all nearby Power Spots, offering a limited-time chance to battle and capture this Gen 1 Pokemon. Preparation is key, so let's strategize!
Machop's Strengths and Weaknesses:
Machop, a pure Fighting-type, resists Rock, Bug, and Dark-type attacks. However, it's vulnerable to Flying, Fairy, and Psychic-type moves. Keep this in mind when selecting your team.
Top Machop Counters:
Max Battles restrict you to your owned Dynamax Pokemon. Here are some excellent choices:
- Beldum/Metang/Metagross: Their Psychic secondary typing provides a significant advantage, making them top contenders.
- Charizard: Its Flying secondary type gives it an edge, combined with its overall strength.
- Other Powerful Dynamax Pokemon: While lacking a type advantage, powerful fully evolved Pokemon like Dubwool, Greedent, Blastoise, Rillaboom, Cinderace, Inteleon, or Gengar can still overcome Machop with superior stats and damage output.
Prepare your strongest Dynamax Pokemon and get ready to dominate Machop on Max Monday! Remember, time is limited, so make every battle count.
