PvE Analysis
Recommended moves
⚔️ Raids
Swoobat is a Flying and Psychic-type Pokémon. Despite being a fully evolved Pokémon, Swoobat’s max CP is a mere 1940. As such, Swoobat does not make for a very good raid attacker.
PvP Analysis
Recommended moves
- Great League:
Confusion
Fly
Psychic Fangs
🔵 Great League
Swoobat has quite a few good things going for it in the Great League. It has access to Confusion, a heavy damage-dealing move. It also has Psychic Fangs and Fly as Charged Attacks, which are quite spammy. Psychic Fangs also lowers the opponent’s defense, making each subsequent Confusion hit even harder.
However, Swoobat is also relatively frail and has a total of five weaknesses: Dark, Electric, Ghost, Ice, and Steel. As such, Swoobat’s potential in the Great League is rather diminished. Nevertheless, with a move update or two, Swoobat could become quite the threat!
