You've heard of Spotlight Hours and Raid Hours, but now it's time for Max Mondays in . This is a new weekly mini-event that takes place (surprise, surprise) every Monday evening from 6 PM to 7 PM. During this time, every Power Spot on the map will feature one specific Max Raid Boss, giving you the perfect chance to battle and add them to your collection.
Dynamaxing is the latest gimmick that's been brought over to from the mainline games. Originating in on the Nintendo Switch, the Dynamax ability lets Pokémon grow to a humungous size and unleash powerful Max Moves on their opponents. To catch Pokémon that are capable of Dynamaxing, you'll need to take part in Max Raid Battles. Fortunately, the Max Monday schedule will help you do just that.
Four Max Monday headliners have been announced for so far, with three of them happening in November and one happening at the beginning of December. You can see all of the headliners in the table below, alongside details of their weaknesses to help you defeat them in battle:

It's currently unclear if it will be appearing exclusively in the Max Monday mini-event, or if it will debut as part of a bigger event that runs alongside the Max Monday mini-event.
Remember that you can only use Dynamax or Gigantamax-capable Pokémon in these Max Raid Battles, which does mean you'll need to add some to your collection before you're eligible to take part in Max Mondays.
