      Recommended moves

      Darumaka is one of the happiest Pokémon around, dancing around in bliss. 💃🕺 However, that joy doesn't translate to combat, as its stats (particularly DEF) are very low. Dance on, Darumaka—you don't need to fight in Raids or Gyms. 🥰

      PvP AnalysisPvP Analysis

      Little CupLittle Cup
      Great LeagueGreat League

      💎 Darumaka’s best moveset for PvP is Fire Fang, Flame Charge, and Fire Punch.

      🧸 Little Cup

      Darumaka has a reasonably high ATK for a Little Cup entrant, and this fiery little Pokémon makes this trait even hotter with the guaranteed ATK buff from Flame Charge. 🔥

      Complementing it is Fire Punch, a cheap Charged Move that helps burn through shields. 👊 However, despite these offensive perks, keep in mind that Darumaka has a wildly low DEF stat, making it vulnerable to high-damage Fast Moves. 😶‍🌫️

      Darumaka is too underpowered for the Great, Ultra, and Master League.
