# Dynamax

### Dynamax System

Dynamax is a powerful feature in our Cobblemon server that allows certain Pokémon to grow to an enormous size and gain enhanced abilities during battle. When a Pokémon Dynamaxes, it receives a **huge boost in HP**, and all of its moves become **Max Moves** with additional effects.

Dynamaxing can only be triggered **once per battle**, and it lasts for **3 turns**. This mechanic introduces a strategic layer to PvE and PvP, as choosing the right moment to Dynamax can turn the tide of any fight.

#### The Dynamax Band

To activate Dynamax in battle, you must be wearing a **Dynamax Band** in your **offhand slot**.\
This item connects your Trainer with the mysterious energy of the Dynamax Candies, allowing you to call upon Dynamax energy during key moments in combat.

> ⚠️ Without the Dynamax Band, you cannot Dynamax your Pokémon, even if they are eligible.

**Possible Rewards Include:**
