Pokemon Go’s Groudon Raids will assist players in catching one of the game’s most beloved and versatile Pokemon. Its elemental type and movesets are among the best in the game. Also, trainers can use it in Raids against some of the Legendaries and Mega Pokemon to achieve great results. With little time to capture as many Groudon as possible, we’ve put together this article to assist all trainers in maximizing this legendary Pokemon’s potential. Behold, here is the best Moveset that Groudon can use in Pokemon Go!
Groudon’s Best Moveset in Pokemon Go
(Updated on August 8, 2024 – updated links, formatting, and intro)
Pokemon Go’s Groudon’s best moveset consists of Dragon Tail and Earthquake. This moveset has the most overall DPS and is also the most effective in PVP and Gym encounters.
Groudon can only use two different quick attacks, Dragon Tail and Mud Shot. Dragon Tail has a higher damage per second rate, but Mud Shot has a higher energy per second rate. Taking this into consideration, the only factor that makes Dragon Tail reign supreme is the superior Dragon-type affinity of the attack.
For its strong abilities, Groudon trainers should only consider Earthquake. It can use three other attacks, and two of them, Fire Blast and Fire Punch, are weak in comparison. The only other power one might consider is Solar Beam. Unfortunately, because Groudon is an Earth-type Pokemon, it does not benefit from Same Type Attack Bonus.
When a Pokemon of specific type uses a move of the same element, it receives a Same Type Attack Bonus. A water Pokemon, for example, would gain an attack boost if it employed a water-type move. This results in a 1.2 multiplier, meaning the move causes 20% more damage.
If you’re wondering who to unleash your Groudon on, target the Electric and Fire types. They are extremely vulnerable to this moveset. Other important information is that his max CP is 4115 and weak to Water, Ice, and Grass-types.
