      ⚔️ Raids

      Plusle is a single-stage, pure Electric-type Pokémon. It has a max CP of 2010 and a DPS of around 9.31. Unfortunately, there are many other Electric-type Pokémon that can fit the role of a raid attacker better than Plusle.

      PvP AnalysisPvP Analysis

      Recommended moves

      🔵 Great League

      Plusle has a max CP of 2010, making it too weak for the Ultra and Master Leagues. It doesn’t perform well in the Great League either, as Plusle’s moveset and specific stat combination make it weak to most meta Pokémon, even Water-type Pokémon, which it should be strong against as a pure Electric-type. Even in niche scenarios where Plusle might have been useful, its counterpart Minun performs better due to a better overall stat spread.
