Entei has solid stats and moveset, but over the years, this Gen 2 Legendary has fallen from grace, with several Fire types surpassing it in firepower. 🔥
It’s still worth adding to your Fire-type team, but do know that it’s outclassed, even by all Blast Burn starters. 😕
⚔️ Raids
When not accounting for Megas and Shadows, it’s far behind in DPS. Fire-type starters get the powerful Blast Burn on their Community Days, and they’re cheaper to max out than Entei. As such, this roaring Legendary is often neglected due to the wide variety of stronger options available. 😶🌫️
🛡️ Gyms
Legendaries can't be put in Gyms.
🔮 Dynamax
Dynamax Entei is a decent addition to the Fire-type DMax meta in Pokémon GO, but it’s surpassed by Gigantamax Charizard, Dynamax Charizard, and Dynamax Moltres in sheer power against Grass and Bug-type Max Battles. Their partial Flying typing offers better resistance. 🔥
In the same vein, DMax Entei does have an advantage over DMax Moltres and Charizard in Ice-type Max Battles. 🙌
Keep in mind that since DMax Entei has high HP, it’s a good healer! 👀
Regardless, DMax Entei will be gradually outclassed by several Dynamax forms of Fire Pokémon such as the starters, Darmanitan, Chandelure, Volcarona, and more. 🙂
💎 Entei’s best moveset for PvP is Fire Spin and Overheat.
