      PvP AnalysisPvP Analysis

      Recommended moves

      Carracosta offers no value in PvP, and that's because of its horrible type combination. Water/Rock results in a double weakness to Grass, as well as weaknesses to Electric, Fighting, and Ground. All of these are common opponents in the Great and Ultra League, and Carracosta is underpowered for the Master League.

      💎 Carracosta’s best moveset for PvP (if you're willing to try) is Water Gun/Rock Throw, Liquidation, and Ancient Power.
