      The following chart shows Milotic's DPS and TDO for every fast and charge attack combination. This chart is useful for comparing the relative strength of Milotic'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 Milotic has in Pokémon GO, along with their corresponding DPS (Damage per Second) and TDO (Total Damage Output).

      Milotic in the meta

      Milotic in the meta

      PvE AnalysisPvE Analysis

      Recommended moves

      Milotic has always been a bulk inclined Pokémon and as such, its damage output isn't high enough to give it a spot in the Water-type PvE meta.

      It's not entirely bad per se, and can be used as a budget Water Pokémon, but remember that there are plenty of better options.

      ⚔️ Raids

      If you don't have a Mega or Legendary set, or even the Hydro Cannon wielding starters, use Gyarados instead.

      🛡️ Gyms

      Milotic is quite bulky, and has moves that deal with Gym attackers successfully. Access to Dragon Tail and Blizzard takes Dragon and Grass (which Milotic is weak to) attackers by surprise, stalling them.

      💎 The best PvE moves for Milotic are Waterfall and Surf, although you should go with Dragon Tail and Blizzard for Gym defense.

      PvP AnalysisPvP Analysis

      Recommended moves

      🔵 Great League

      You get just a handful of wins because of Milotic’s sluggish moveset and average damage. Water is also a predominant type in PvP, and there are a host of other Pokémon to choose from.

      🟡 Ultra League

      With less restriction on its CP, Milotic is better in the Ultra League, bagging wins against Shadow Dragonite, Guzzlord, Lapras, Blastoise, and a few Fire types. There's nothing impressive about it and again, you have so many Water Pokémon options.

      🟣 Master League

      Milotic was once known as a spicy pick in the Master League thanks to Dragon Tail's high damage output. Despite lacking STAB or a high ATK, this bulky Pokémon punished Dragons by not taking super-effective damage in return and general coverage.

      Now, Dragon Tail has lost its sheen due to the nerf in the Tales of Transformation Season, pulling back Milotic from whatever potential it had.

      💎 The best PvP moves for Milotic are Dragon Tail, Surf and Wrap.
