Max Guard protects the user from moves for the rest of the turn. Unlike other {{cat|protection moves}}, it fully protects the user from [[Max Move]]s. It can also guard the user against {{m|Phantom Force}}, {{m|Transform}}, and {{m|Psych Up}}.

Max Guard does not protect the user against {{m|Feint}}, but will still protect the user from subsequent attacks. It also does not block {{m|Role Play}}, {{m|Perish Song}}, or {{m|Decorate}}.
Using {{cat|protection moves}} or {{m|Endure}} consecutively decreases the chance of success of any of those moves.


All of a Pokémon's [[status move]]s, regardless of [[type]], will convert to Max Guard upon [[Dynamax]]ing.
Unlike most protection moves, Max Guard protects the user from {{m|Block}}, {{m|Flower Shield}}, {{m|Gear Up}}, {{m|Magnetic Flux}}, {{m|Phantom Force}}, {{m|Psych Up}}, {{m|Teatime}}, and {{m|Transform}}.


The chance of the move failing after subsequent uses is the same one as its non-[[Max Move]] counterpart, meaning that using moves like [[Protect]] or [[Detect]] immediately after using Max Guard have the same chance to fail.
Max Guard does not protect the user against {{m|Feint}}, but its effects remain even after being hit by Feint. It does not protect the user from {{m|Mean Look}}, {{m|Role Play}}, {{m|Perish Song}}, or {{m|Decorate}}.
