In 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Pokemon GO a move becomes a legacy move when it is removed ꦡfrom a Pokemon’s moveset or was only available during an event. Any Pokemon that already has one of these moves in its moveset gets to keep t𓂃hat move even after the move is no longer available, but the species isn't able to learn the move under normal circumstances. Many of these moves are the preferential attack of a certain Pokemon, so they can sometimes be highly-desired on top of being unavailable.
With fast moves, it is all about damage-per-second (DPS) and energy generated per attack (EPS). Charge moves also have a DPS, but a player must also consider how fast they take to recharge (or recover). A move with a higher DPS may not do as much damage as a seemingly weaker move, but when꧅ factoring in the charge time the “weaker” move may actually do more damage during a battle when paired with a high EPS fast move.
Updated on March 2, 2021 by Michael Christopher: Pokemon GO is a game that evolves all the time, and it can be hard to keep up. We thought it would be wise to revisit this list and update it, as the game itself updates all the time and much of the information shifts and morphs over time.
It's worth noting that the developers 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:have now added Elite TMs. These special items allow you to choose a move for your Pokemon, and it includes legacy moves. So, legacy moves are no longer unobtainable. But, these special Elite TMs are very rare, so don't count on getting a lot of them.
15 Thunder Shock — Zapdos 🐷
Zapdos may have lost its status as the Electric-type master in GO to Raikou, but that doesn't mean it isn't still a fantastic Pokemon𒐪 to use. Unfortunately, it no longer has direct access to its best move, Thunder Shock.
This fast❀ move is terrific, providing a bit more DPS than the 🌠other Electric-type fast move available to Zapdos, Charge Beam. If you can get Zapdos to learn Thunder Shock (it comes back in events sometimes), pair it with Thunderbolt for best results.
14 ᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚ *Psystrike — Mewtwo
The signature move of Mewtwo in the main series, Psystrike is not learned by any other Pokemon. Unfortunately, it's not always learnable by Mewtwo in GO, either, as it's a legacy move that comes back in events but isn't around permanently. This is really unfortunate, as it's eas🐓ily Mewtwo's best move.
A two-bar charge move, Psystrikܫe is incredibly powerful, put✃ting Mewtwo at the top of all Psychic-type attackers.
13 ꦕ Hydro Cannon — Swampert
Swampert🎃 is a total beast in the world of Pokemon GO, both against raid bosses and in the📖 PvP meta. Unfortunately, its very best move, Hydro Cannon, is a legacy move that was locked behind Community Day exclusivity.
With this move, though, Swampert dominates the met🍒a in all three leagues of the GO Battle League and holds its own alongside Kyogre an🅷d Palkia against raids.
12 Rock Wrec✱𝐆ker — Rhyperior
Rhyperior looks like it could be a very defensive Pokemon or pack a wallop offensively. With Rock Wrecker, both can be true. This move allows Rhyperior to sit in the high-tier of Rock-type attackers both offensively and when defending 🙈in gyms.
The move became available during Rhyhorn Community Day, and became legacy after that. Pair it with Mud Slap ♚or Smack Down for best results
11 ဣ Outrage🐼 — Salamence
For a maximum damage output from this fantastic pseudo-Legendary Pokemon, pair Dragon-type moves Dragon Tail and Outrage together. With this pairing, Salamence becomes an incredible Dragon-ty🌌pe attacker.
Unfortunately, Outrage was its Community Day move, so it's no longer available through normal means. If you spend the stardust and candy to put both Draco Meteor and Outrage on a Salamence, it becomes🍒 one of the best Pokemon in the game.
10 🐻 Shadow Ball – Mewtwo ♒
That's right, Mewtwo is here twice. This Legendary is in the top tier of Pokemon in GO, and this is made more so if it has the legacy charge move Shadow Ball. To begin with, it is a little odd s🌳eeing Mewtwo with Ghಞost-type move – although it can learn Shadow Ball via TM in the regular Pokemon series.
Shadow Ball has an attack power of 100, which is als🦩o the power rating of Psychic. The difference is that Shadow Ball’s recovery time is almost half that of Psychic’s. The other popular charge move for Mewtwo is Focus Blast; which is more powerful but has a much lower EPS.
9 ꦑ Draco Meteor – Dragonite
Dragonite isn’t as strong as a lot of Pokemon in GO, but it’s one of those Pokemon that everyone vividly remembers when and where they caught their fꩲirst. A Dragonite that has legacy moves (and Dragonite has a lot) can be downright scary in battle. One of the best of th𝔉ese is the charge move Draco Meteor.
This move is just as powerful as Hyper ཧBeam, but a fraciton of a second fasterﷺ on recovery time. The best fast move/charge move pairing Dragonite has yet to have is arguably Dragon Tail and Draco Meteor.
8 ♊Lick – Gengar 🌠
Gengar is a popular Pokemon in GO. It doesn’t have the best stats, but its DPS potential puts it on a level with Pokemon like Dragonite and Moltres. When it comes to DPS, there are few fa🔯st moves better than Lick. One major benefit t𒀰o Lick is its EPS, which is as high as Gengar’s other fast moves but with a much lower recovery time.
The combination of Lick and Shadow Ball is one of Gengar’s best move pairings – being able to deliver 25.87 DPS. A lot of player𒅌s lamented Shadow Claw becoming a legacy move for Gengar, but Lick is actually better in EPS and recovery time.
7 ♕ Rock Throw and Rock Slide – Omastar
Omastar is a middle-tier Pokemon that can perform decently in batt⛄le if trained properly. Its available fast attacks are a little below average in terms of DPS (13.3). This is why Rock Throw is so sorely missed — it was easily Omastar’s best fast attack. That and it was Omastar’s only Rock-type fast꧟ attack.
Rock Slide, on the other hand, was Omastar’s second-best charge move after Hydro Pump, and not as missed as Rock Throw because Omastar has two other charge moves to choose from. It has a power ratingꦬ of 80 and takes 2.7 seconds to recharge. These two moves together are the third strongest pairing available to Omastar.
Interestingly, if one has an Omastar with Rock Throw and Rock Slide, it's one of the only usable Pokemon with🌼 a Rock-type move in both slots, which isn't to be ignored.
6 🌼 𒆙 Frenzy Plant – Venusaur
Venusaur has been a favorite of many players since Generation I. One reason for this is nostalgia; another reason is that Vღenusaur is a gre🌱at all-around Pokemon stat-wise. So there are a lot of trainers unhappy with the fact their Venusaur will not learn Frenzy Plant without the use of an Elite TM, or during the short event windows that it becomes available from time to time.
Frenzy Plant is by far its best charge move; although Solar Beam comes close in damage potential. This charge move has a power of 100 and a rec🙈overy time of 2.6 seconds. The highest damage output for Venusaur is the pairing of Vine Whip and Frenzy Plant. Razor Leaf combined with Frenzy Plant is the third-best pairing.
Now that Venusaur can Mega Evolve, it has much more p♈rominence among Grass-typeܫ attackers. So, consider using those Elite TMs to give it Frenzy Plant, which is an amazing move.
