PvE Analysis
Recommended moves
- Dragon Attacker:
Dragon Tail
Breaking Swipe - Ground Attacker:
Mud Shot
Earth Power *
⚔️ Raids
Garchomp is a decent addition to your Dragon or Ground Raid team. It is outclassed by all means but still puts in a lot of work, both in DPS and TDO.
- Dragon Tail and Mud Shot: Garchomp’s Fast Attacks. Both attacks are viable and strong in their respective type requirements.
- Outrage, Breaking Swipe, Earth Power and Earthquake: Garchomp’s PvE relevant Charged Attacks. Each of them are strong Charged Attacks in their own right but Breaking Swipe and Earth Power, which is a legacy attack, are the preferred choice.
Without taking Megas and Shadows into consideration, Garchomp is surpassed by several Legendaries, fellow Pseudo Legendaries like Salamence and Dragapult, and even Haxorus in the Dragon-type department.
It is more viable as a Ground-type attacker due to lesser competition and its triple resistance to Electric-type damage. Overall, its DPS is behind the Groudon variants, Landorus (Therian Forme), and Excadrill.
🛡️ Gyms
Garchomp is quite bulky but it also has a double weakness to Ice-type attacks, making even a full HP defender an easy target.

Earth Power
🔵 Great League
Garchomp’s potential is seriously surpassed by the 1500 CP cap of Great League. It can hit hard but is super glassy and is reduced to a mere fun or meme pick.
🟡 Ultra League
Even with a higher CP cap of 2500, Garchomp still struggles to make any kind of relevant impact in the Ultra League. It is just better than its Shadow variant but is still heavily eclipsed by other Dragon and Ground type options.
🟣 Master League
In Master League, Garchomp can perform to its full potential but unfortunately gets outclassed by its Shadow variant. It is still a decent pick, registering a few noteworthy wins. But with a lot of Dragon and Ice type legendaries roaming the meta, it struggles to make itself a top meta relevant pick. Dragon Tail with Twister and Earth Power is the recommended moveset, though Sand Tomb can also be used.

Catch probability with multiple throws
In order to help Trainers understand their overall odds when catching Garchomp, we enable the functionality to showing the total chance to catch it depending on the number of available throws. We calculate this chance as if you repeated the same throw N-number of times.
To activate this functionality, change the number of Number of throws to a value greater than 1. The Number of throws option is available in the configuration options above the chart
Catch rate formula
Pokémon GO catch rate formula can be expressed as follows:
CATCH_MULTIPLIERS = ball * curve * berry * throwType * (type1Medal + type2Medal / 2)CATCH_RATE = 1 - Math.pow(1 - baseCatchRate / (2 * cpm), CATCH_MULTIPLIERS)
There are different multipliers that come into play when calculating catch rate.
Curved throws are more effective than regular throws, stronger types of Poké Ball have a higher catch rate, and using a Razz Berry or a Golden Razz Berry also improves your chances.
