List of Battle Pokémon: Difference between revisions

Revision as of 08:03, 28 October 2025

This is a list of Pokémon which are good for battling (In most circumstances, they will One-hit Knockout the opposing Pokémon).

Some things to note:

This is only a recommendation - players can use any Pokémon they wish to use in battles.

This list will exclude moves that have low attack percentage. e.g. Fissure which does 300 power, but only a 30% chance to hit

If you have a favourite Pokémon, don't be afraid to use it. It may or may not be as strong as the ones mentioned below but still viable for battle.

STAB in Pokémon stands for Same-Type Attack Bonus, which is a 50% damage boost applied to moves when a Pokémon uses a move that matches one of its own types. For example, a Fire-type Pokémon like Charmander will deal 50% more damage with a Fire-type move like Ember compared to a non-Fire-type Pokémon using the same move.

Be sure to use the 'Dark' variant of the Pokémon as they deal +25% more damage and some of the Pokémon in this list cannot OHKO without the being 'Dark' variants.

Only Pokémon with 160+ attack damage will OHKO without 'Dark' variant.
