Corphish's Tier Ranking & Meta Analysis

Read meta analysis

Corphish PvE Analysis

Recommended moves

Even with a decent Attack stat, Corphish doesn’t come close to the many powerful Water-type attackers in the meta.

It’s a Dex filler in PvE and is meant to be evolved ASAP, not used in Raids or Gyms.

Corphish PvP Analysis

Recommended moves

🧸 Little Cup

It’s a tragic case for Corphish in PvP. It has high Attack and better bulk than many Little Cup entrants.

However, its viable moves are only Water-type, severely limiting its potential against most of the Little Cup meta.

It gets beaten by the format’s strongest Pokémon like Deino, Seel, Ducklett, Bronzor, and even Gligar. 😭

💎 Corphish’s best moveset for the Little Cup is:
➡ Bubble, Razor Shell, and Scald.

Corphish is too weak for the Great, Ultra, and Master League.
