Dynamax boss tier list
Every released Dynamax + Gigantamax boss ranked by raid priority. S = must-raid, C = skip unless you need it for the dex. Click any boss for full counter teams + Max Move data.

Useful in specific scenarios — type coverage gaps, dex completion, or Max Particle farming when nothing else is up.
Intro / starter bosses. Worth one clear for the Dynamax-trained version, but not worth repeating.
Tiers weigh three factors: (1) raw attacker value of the Dynamax form once you've built it, (2) how often you'd raid this boss for Max Particle or candy income, and (3) reward-side scarcity — Gigantamax bosses get a tier bump because the G-Max move only drops here. Editorial — not auto-generated — and updated as new bosses ship.
