6-star Max Battles

Inteleon's G-Max form can be battled and encountered via 6-star Max Battles between 6 am and 9 pm local time on June 14 and 15, 2025. Up to 40 trainers can work together to take down the Power Spot boss. Each player must spend 800 MP to enter the battle in person. Those joining remotely must also expend a Remote Raid Pass.

Gigantamax Inteleon is weak to Electric- and Grass-type attacks. Here are the best options to counter it:

Attacker	Fast Move	Key Skill
Gigantamax/Dynamax Toxtricity	Spark	Level 3 Max Attack
Gigantamax Rillaboom	Scratch	Level 3 Max Attack
Gigantamax/Dynamax Venusaur	Vine Whip	Level 3 Max Attack
Dynamax Rillaboom	Razor Leaf	Level 3 Max Attack
Dynamax Raikou	Thunder Shock	Level 3 Max Attack
Dynamax Zapdos	Thunder Shock	Level 3 Max Attack

Once you win the fight, you can capture Inteleon at the following CP range:

• No weather boost: 1,614 CP to 1,693 CP at Level 20 (10/10/10 - 15/15/15 IVs)

Trade

Gigantamax Inteleon can be traded. However, it will count as a Special Trade. Unless you have a very high friendship level with the trainer you are trading with, this exchange will cost you a hefty amount of Stardust. Try to ensure this is a Lucky Trade, so that you are at least guaranteed to get a high-IV variant of G-Max Inteleon.
