Seaking's Tier Ranking & Meta Analysis

Seaking PvE Analysis

Recommended moves

Seaking is just a marginal improvement over Goldeen in stats, making it a poor choice for both ⚔️ Raids and 🛡️ Gyms. Don't bother using it to beat even 1-Star Raids.

Seaking PvP Analysis

Recommended moves

🔵 Great League

Seaking is a decent Pokémon for the Great League, using good coverage to keep the opponent guessing. Prominent wins include Azumarill, Altaria, Empoleon, Sealeo, and Shadow Sableye, but its success is credited to its Legacy Moves that give it the damage output and opponent's ATK debuffs necessary to get the job done. However, it trails behind numerous Water Pokémon in overall performance, with the latter not even requiring Elite TMs or Stardust.

🟡 Ultra League

Seaking's stats are must suited for the Ultra League and with a max CP is 2444, there's no holding back this Pokémon in this format as it takes down Shadow Drapion, Empoleon, Kommo-o, Zygarde Complete, Virizion, Guzzlord, Trevenant, Tentacruel, Shadow Scizor, and Shadow Annihilape, all due to its great coverage from Legacy Moves. Unlike the Great League, it is actually worth unlocking Legacy Moves for Seaking (using Elite TMs) in the Ultra League. A very oppressive Pokémon for most opponents!

🟣 Master League
