A '''Max Move''' (Japanese: '''ダイマックスわざ''' ''{{tt|Daimax|Dynamax}} Move'') is a special type of [[move]] introduced in [[Generation VIII]]. While [[Dynamax]]ed, all of a Dynamax Pokémon's moves are replaced by their corresponding Max Moves. For Gigantamax Pokémon some moves become [[G-Max Move]] instead. Max Moves are often more powerful than regular moves and all have secondary effects.

While [[Dynamax]]ed, all of a Dynamax Pokémon's moves are replaced by their corresponding Max Moves. For [[Gigantamax]] Pokémon, attacking moves of a certain type become [[G-Max Move]]s instead. Max Moves are often more powerful than regular moves and all have secondary effects.


==Effects==
==Effects==
Similar to [[Z-Move]]s, the [[type]], [[damage category]] and base [[power]] of Max Moves that a Dynamax Pokémon knows depend on the moves it knew before Dynamaxing. The exception to this are [[status move]]s, which instead all become the {{type|Normal}} {{m|Max Guard}}. If the base move's type is changed either by a move's effect or an [[Ability]] (e.g. {{a|Pixilate}}, {{m|Electrify}}, or {{m|Weather Ball}}), then the Max Move will also be converted to that of the new type with the same power; however, the move selection screen will still display the Max Move of the original type. For instance, if a {{type|Fighting}} {{p|Silvally}} knows {{m|Multi-Attack}}, the Max Move will still display as {{m|Max Strike}}, but when executed it becomes {{m|Max Knuckle}}.

Damaging Max Moves deal 25% of their total damage against targets that use {{cat|protection moves}} (such as {{m|Protect}} and {{m|Spiky Shield}}), and secondary effects are still applied. Only the Max Move {{m|Max Guard}} fully protects against Max Moves. Secondary effects of Max Moves may also affect targets and their allies behind a {{m|Substitute}}. Max Moves also never miss, unless the target is {{DL|Status condition|semi-invulnerable}}.

For [[Gigantamax]] Pokémon, damaging moves of a certain type become its exclusive [[G-Max Move]] instead of the normal corresponding Max Move; the type of moves affected depends on the Gigantamax Pokémon's species. [[Eternamax]] {{p|Eternatus}} can also use Max Moves, but this form cannot be obtained by the player.

Certain sync pairs are capable of Dynamaxing, including some Trainers that do not have Dynamax Bands in the core series. All attacking max moves have 400-480 power range. The max move can be used once per battle
Certain [[sync pair]]s are capable of Dynamaxing their partner Pokémon, including some Trainers that do not have Dynamax Bands in the core series. All attacking max moves<ref group="note">The term "max move" is formatted in {{wp|sentence case}} in Pokémon Masters EX, though it is still occasionally formatted as "Max Move" in official newsletters.</ref> start at 400 base power and can be increased up to a maximum power of 480.


====List of Max Moves====
A sync pair can only use a max move once per battle, but it can be used at any time. If all three sync pairs on the player's team are capable of using max moves, the player can use up to three max moves in that battle—one for each sync pair. Similar to [[sync move]]s, using a max move does not advance the user's sync move countdown, but it never misses and ignores the target's Enduring effect, if applicable.

A Max Move (Japanese: ダイマックスわざ Daimax Move) is a special type of move introduced in Generation VIII. While Dynamaxed, all of a Dynamax Pokémon's moves are replaced by their corresponding Max Moves. For Gigantamax Pokémon, attacking moves of a certain type become G-Max Moves instead. Max Moves are often more powerful than regular moves and all have secondary effects.

Effects

Similar to Z-Moves, the type, damage category and base power of Max Moves that a Dynamax Pokémon knows depend on the moves it knew before Dynamaxing. The exception to this are status moves, which instead all become the Normal-type Max Guard. If the base move's type is changed either by a move's effect or an Ability (e.g. Pixilate, Electrify, or Weather Ball), then the Max Move will also be converted to that of the new type with the same power; however, the move selection screen will still display the Max Move of the original type. For instance, if a Fighting-type Silvally knows Multi-Attack, the Max Move will still display as Max Strike, but when executed it becomes Max Knuckle.

Damaging Max Moves deal 25% of their total damage against targets that use protection moves (such as Protect and Spiky Shield), and secondary effects are still applied. Only the Max Move Max Guard fully protects against Max Moves. Secondary effects of Max Moves may also affect targets and their allies behind a substitute. Max Moves also never miss, unless the target is semi-invulnerable.

For Gigantamax Pokémon, damaging moves of a certain type become its exclusive G-Max Move instead of the normal corresponding Max Move; the type of moves affected depends on the Gigantamax Pokémon's species. Eternamax Eternatus can also use Max Moves, but this form cannot be obtained by the player.

Power

The following table shows the power of a Max Move based on its respective base move. The same power values are also used for most G-Max Moves.

In the spin-off games

Pokémon Masters EX

Certain sync pairs are capable of Dynamaxing their partner Pokémon, including some Trainers that do not have Dynamax Bands in the core series. All attacking max moves[note 1] start at 400 base power and can be increased up to a maximum power of 480.

A sync pair can only use a max move once per battle, but it can be used at any time. If all three sync pairs on the player's team are capable of using max moves, the player can use up to three max moves in that battle—one for each sync pair. Similar to sync moves, using a max move does not advance the user's sync move countdown, but it never misses and ignores the target's Enduring effect, if applicable.
