Octillery's Tier Ranking & Meta Analysis

Read meta analysis

Octillery PvE Analysis

Recommended moves

⚔️ Raids

Its pre-evolved form, Remoraid, was based on a pistol, so keeping with the theme, Octillery is based on an armored tank. However, in Pokémon GO, it performs as anything but tanky. As a pure Water-type attacker, it again faces strong competition from much more capable raid attackers. With a lower-end Attack stat of 197, and weak Water moves like Water Gun and Water Pulse as its best options, you would do better to take one of the Water starter final evolutions. Heck, even all three forms of Basculin outperform Octillery!

🛡️ Gyms

An open-top tank made of paper is more likely to stick around in gyms than Octillery is. Its pitiful defensive stats and inability to hit back with any real firepower put it at a major disadvantage, so it’s best avoided to maximize your return on gyms.

Octillery PvP Analysis

Recommended moves

🧸 Little League

The top-ranking Water-type specialist in Little League is Marill, and there is nothing Octillery can do that comes close to matching it. Even providing the octo-tank its best moveset of Lock On, Aurora Beam, and Acid Spray, it only picks up a demanding victory against Mandibuzz, which is seldom seen in Little League. When comparing that to its top losses, they all wipe the inky floor with Octillery.

🔵 Great League

In quite the flip turn, Mandibuzz, as one of the top competitors in the Great League, now completely destroys Octillery. For moveset, we switch to Lock On, Octazooka, and Gunk Shot, but this alone isn’t enough to make Octillery a viable battler.

🟡 Ultra League

Since Octillery maxes out at 2617 CP, it's just able to have an ideal IV spread of 5/15/15 for competing in Ultra League. If only that was all it needed. Switching movesets again to Lock On, Octazooka, and Water Pulse, Octillery has the single job of spamming charged moves. However, with the little risk it poses, it's unlikely to bait any shield uses, which other spam attackers can make the most of.

🟣 Master League

Deep fry this octopus and call it calamari, because Octillery is done for.
