A '''G-Max Move''' (Japanese: '''キョダイマックスわざ''' ''{{tt|Kyodaimax|Gigantamax}} Move'') is a special type of [[move]] introduced in [[Generation VIII]]. G-Max Moves are special [[Max Move]]s that are exclusive to [[Gigantamax]] Pokémon.


For Gigantamax Pokémon, damaging moves of a certain type become its [[signature move|exclusive]] G-Max Move instead of the normal corresponding Max Move; the type of moves affected depends on the Gigantamax Pokémon's species. Like Max Moves, the [[damage category]] and base [[power]] of Max Moves are taken from that of the compatible base move, and cannot be fully protected against by {{cat|protection moves}} (such as {{m|Detect}} and {{m|King's Shield}}), except by the Max Move {{m|Max Guard}}.

G-Max Moves use the same power as their Max Move counterparts, and thus the only difference between a G-Max Move and a Max Move of the same type is its secondary effect.
