Pokemon GO: Dynamax Toxtricity Weaknesses And Resistances

Dynamax Toxtricity is resistant to Pokemon and moves of the Fighting, Flying, Grass, Fairy, Poison, Steel, Bug, and Electric types. For this reason, Trainers should avoid using such monsters in their lineup against one in battle.
Instead, you should look to utilize Ground and Psychic Type Pokemon/Moves, as Dynamax Toxtricity is weak to Psychic Types and 2x weak to Ground Types.

Players should look to utilize a team of Pokemon that have as powerful stats as possible, whilst also carrying a Type advantage against Dynamax Toxtricity. However, in Max Battles, you can only utilize Dynamax and Gigantamax Pokemon, which narrows down selections quite a bit.
Despite this, some of the best potential monsters for Max Battles against Dynamax Toxtricity have been highlighted below due to their Type advantage, stat spread, or resistance against the boss.

Alternatively, using pure Normal Type Pokemon can also be beneficial, as they are next most versatile Type that can be used in such situations. However, to make up for a lack of Type advantage, it is recommended to (mostly) only use evolved Normal Types, as Toxtricity is a 4 Star Max Battle Boss. You may be able to get away with using some non-evolved Pokemon if they generally have higher stats.
