The next legendary Dynamax monster has been announced in Pokémon GO. We have looked into how strong it could be for you.
What kind of monster is this? Suicune has been announced in its Dynamax form. After Raikou has already been available in Dynamax Raids and Entei will be waiting for you in Dynamax Raids this coming weekend, the legendary trio is completed with Suicune.
You will find Dynamax Suicune during a special Dyna Battle weekend. The event starts on Saturday, May 10, 2025, at 10:00 AM, and ends on Sunday, May 11, 2025, at 9:00 PM.

What bonuses are there during the event? During the event, you can look forward to the following bonuses:
- Collection limit for Dyna particles is increased to 1,600
- The required walking distance for Dyna particles is quartered
- Power sources regenerate more frequently
- 8 times the amount of Dyna particles from power sources
- Unlocking and leveling Dyna attacks costs only 75% of the usual Dyna particles (this bonus is active from May 5, 2025, at 6:00 AM to May 11, 2025, at 9:00 PM)
Time-limited research: Starting Monday, May 5, 2025, at 6:00 AM, you will receive a free, time-limited research task. Here you can obtain Dynamax Chimpep as well as Chimpep candies, Dyna particles, and other rewards.
How strong is Dynamax Suicune? It can be expected that Suicune will not reach the top of the best Dynamax attackers. As a water attacker, there are already monsters such as Blastoise in its Dynamax and Gigantamax forms, Gigantamax Lapras, as well as Dynamax and Gigantamax Kingler that will be stronger than Suicune.
Also in the field of ice attackers, there is strong competition for Suicune. It is likely to fall behind Gigantamax Lapras and will rather be on par with Dynamax Articuno and Dynamax Frigometri.
If you already own some of the monsters, then Dynamax Suicune will probably not be a significant enhancement for your Dyna team.
However, collectors should not miss out on the chance to catch this Pokémon. It is still unknown when there will be another opportunity to obtain Suicune in its Dynamax form. Additionally, you can also obtain Dynamax Suicune as a shiny with some luck.
The current month is coming to an end. However, there are still several events making their way into the game in the last days of the month that will provide you with various content. You can find out which ones in our list of all events in April 2025 in Pokémon GO.
