Similar to [[Z-Move]]s, the [[type]], [[damage category]] and base [[power]] of Max Moves that a Dynamax Pokémon knows depend on the moves | Similar to [[Z-Move]]s, the [[type]], [[damage category]] and base [[power]] of Max Moves that a Dynamax Pokémon knows depend on the moves it knew before Dynamaxing. The exception to this are [[status move]]s, which instead all become the {{type|Normal}} {{m|Max Guard}}. If the base move's type is changed either by a move or [[Ability]] (e.g. {{a|Pixilate}}, {{m|Electrify}}, or {{m|Weather Ball}}), then the Max Move will also be converted to that of the new type with the same power. However, the move selection screen will still display the Max Move of the original type; for instance, if a {{type|Fighting}} {{p|Silvally}} knows {{m|Multi-Attack}}, the Max Move will still display as {{m|Max Strike}}, but when executed it becomes {{m|Max Knuckle}}. | ||
Damaging Max Moves and their secondary effects cannot be fully protected against by {{cat|protection moves}} (such as {{m|Protect}} and {{m|Spiky Shield}}), except by the Max Move {{m|Max Guard}}. Secondary effects of Max Moves may also affect targets and their allies behind a {{m|Substitute}}. Max Moves also never miss, unless the target is {{DL|Status condition|semi-invulnerable}}. | Damaging Max Moves and their secondary effects cannot be fully protected against by {{cat|protection moves}} (such as {{m|Protect}} and {{m|Spiky Shield}}), except by the Max Move {{m|Max Guard}}.
