With the help of this guide, you can easily Boot Pixel 3 & Pixel 3 XL into Recovery Mode.

Benefits of Recovery Mode:

Recovery mode is of much help when it comes to flashing zip files directly on your phone, but that’s most of the times possible only by having a custom recovery installed on your phone. Using the recovery mode you can clear your phone’s cache, wipe factory data, wipe Dalvik cache.

In case you have a custom recovery installed on your phone, it lets you make a nandroid backup, let’s you flash zip files like mods, custom ROMs etc, custom recoveries also allow you to restore your system if you have backed it up.

Sometimes, what happens is, you are stuck in the bootloop, or your phone doesn’t respond. In the case, you can either access the download mode or the recovery mode.

Wiping cache and Dalvik cache may let you get rid of the problems, but just in case none of these works, booting into download mode and flashing a stock firmware will definitely help you.
