Quick Attack

⚔️ Raids
Victini is a Psychic- and Fire-type Mythical Pokémon, and a pretty great one at that.
It’s a decent Psychic-type raid attacker when using Confusion and Psychic.
However, it’s even better as a Fire-type raid attacker, using Quick Attack and V-Create!
As a Psychic-type raid attacker, Victini is strong against Fighting- and Poison-type Pokémon.
As a Fire-type raid attacker, it counters Bug-, Grass-, Steel-, and Ice-types.
While Victini can perform both roles well, if you want to save TMs, it is recommended to use Victini as a Fire-type raid attacker.
PvP Analysis
Recommended moves
🔵 Great League
While Victini isn’t a top-tier Pokémon in the open meta, it excels in certain limited formats, such as the Psychic Cup, where its neutral Fire damage makes it devastating.
🟡 Ultra League
Victini is rarely used in Ultra League and does not see much play in this format.
🟣 Master League
Although Victini can technically be used in the Master League, it pales in comparison to other Legendaries and Mythicals that dominate the meta.
