Gigalith's Tier Ranking & Meta Analysis

Read meta analysis

Gigalith PvE Analysis

Recommended moves

Gigalith is a great budget option as a Rock-type attacker, thanks to decent stats and access to the powerful move Meteor Beam. ☄️ Don't hesitate to power it up! ⬆️

💎 Gigalith’s best moveset for PvE is Smack Down and Meteor Beam.

⚔️ Raids

When not taking Megas and Shadows into consideration, Gigalith is among the top options to deal high Rock-type damage. 👍

🛡️ Gyms

Gigalith has good defenses, but as a Rock-type Pokémon, it is weak to Fighting, Grass, Ground, Water, and Steel types, making it vulnerable to many Gym attackers.

Gigalith PvP Analysis

Recommended moves

💎 Gigalith's best moveset for PvP is Mud-Slap, Meteor Beam, and Superpower.

🔵 Great League

Gigalith’s bulk goes for a toss in the Great League, and adding that to its slew of weaknesses, you can see why running Gigalith is challenging. 😅

🟡 Ultra League

Another League... and the same problems continue for Gigalith. It's best left to PvE. 🫠

🟣 Master League

You guessed it—the same set of problems again for Gigalith. Its stats aren’t high enough for this format, and it also doesn’t have an OP moveset like Rhyperior to make an impact.
