In an interesting turn of events, a social media post that was quickly removed hints at the impending arrival of Dynamax Legendary Pokémon in Pokémon GO as early as January 2025. This revelation has sparked excitement and speculation within the community.
The Challenge of Max Raids
Max Raids present some of the most formidable challenges in Pokémon GO, primarily due to the necessity of in-person cooperation among players. Take Cryogonal, for instance; this Pokémon poses a significant threat when tackled solo, unless players have meticulously assembled a trio of Dynamax-optimized Pokémon ready for combat.
Leaked Information About Legendary Birds
Further insights indicate an even greater challenge approaching Max Raids. A now-deleted tweet from the Pokémon GO Saudi Arabia account suggested that the formidable trio of Articuno, Moltres, and Zapdos is set to make their debut in Max Battles between January 20 and February 3. This information was initially shared on The Silph Road Reddit.

Implications of Dynamaxing Legendary Birds
If this leak holds true—supported by observable gaps in the Max Battle schedule—we may be witnessing the introduction of some of the most powerful Dynamax Pokémon in Pokémon GO to date. The Kanto Legendary Birds, known for their formidable strength and versatile Galarian forms, could considerably raise the stakes in battles. Their Dynamax forms will likely challenge players like never before since players cannot deploy their own Dynamax Legendary Pokémon, as these birds will be the pioneers.
Advantages for Players
However, there’s a silver lining: players fortunate enough to capture these Legendary Birds will gain a substantial edge in upcoming Max Battles. With their inherently high stats and powerful moves, these Pokémon will make it easier for trainers to dominate current Dynamax encounters, which have been overcrowded with less competitive Pokémon.
The Future of Dynamax in Pokémon GO
Looking forward, once the path is cleared for Dynamaxing Legendary Pokémon, other iconic names like Mewtwo, Ho-Oh, and Lugia are anticipated to join the fray. However, it’s reasonable to expect that these releases will be spaced out over the coming months and years, especially as we await the arrival of the Gen 10 games.
