      The following chart shows Lotad's DPS and TDO for every fast and charge attack combination. This chart is useful for comparing the relative strength of Lotad's movesets. You can change the weather and the opposing Pokémon to see how it affects the rankings.

      Legacy Elite Fast and Charge Attacks can only be obtained during special events, or by using an Elite Fast TM or an Elite Charge TM. Legacy moves are marked with an asterisk (*). The table above provides information on different moves Lotad has in Pokémon GO, along with their corresponding DPS (Damage per Second) and TDO (Total Damage Output).

      PvE AnalysisPvE Analysis

      No surprises here but Lotad is simply not a PvE Pokémon, bearing the typically low stats associated with the base of a three-stage evolution line.

      PvP AnalysisPvP Analysis

      Recommended moves

      🧸 Little Cup

      With an extremely high resistance to Water type moves, Lotad breezes through the likes of Barboach, Seel, and Wooper. Other prominent wins include Wigglytuff, Swinub, and Wynaut. While Lotad can't muster too many wins on its own, it's great as a safe switch-in, taking Water, Ground, and even Fire and Electric types off-guard.

      Lotad lacks sufficient stats for any other PvP League.
