Alolan Dugtrio's Tier Ranking & Meta Analysis

Read meta analysis

Alolan Dugtrio PvE Analysis

Recommended moves

⚔️ Raids

With a max CP of 2145, and relatively poor defensive typing, Alolan Dugtrio can’t realistically output a significant amount of damage before it goes down, but it is fun to watch its locks swaying as it throws out some ground type damage!

🛡️ Gyms

Alolan Dugtrio isn’t the greatest gym defender due to its lack of bulk.

Alolan Dugtrio PvP Analysis

Recommended moves

Preferred Moveset - Mud Slap, Mud Bomb & Iron Head

🧸 Little League

It will be interesting to see whether there is a limited meta which suits Alolan Dugtrio in the future, but for now its lack of bulk holds it back in the Little Cup meta.

🔵 Great League

Alolan Dugtrio does see some play in the Fantasy Cup meta, playing an anti-meta role. Unfortunately, A-Dug’s stats are poorly suited to the PvP scene, and its moveset is decent but not special enough to elevate it to greatness. Overall, there are much safer Mud-Slappers to use for the open Great League meta.

🟡 Ultra League

Goldilocks doesn’t have the CP or the stats to compete against the Ultra League.
