PvE Analysis
Recommended moves
- Poison Attacker:
Infestation
Gunk Shot
Garbodor is a pure Poison-type Pokémon with a max CP of 2651. It is not useful for PvE, even with its best moveset of Infestation and Gunk Shot.
⚔️ Raids
Garbodor is sadly rubbish in raids. (Get it?!)
🛡️ Gyms
There are much better options available.
PvP Analysis
Recommended moves
- Great League:
Infestation
Body Slam
Seed Bomb - Ultra League:
Infestation
Body Slam
Seed Bomb
Garbodor’s best moveset for PvP is Infestation, Body Slam, and Seed Bomb, but you don’t want to use Garbodor in PvP.
🔵 Great League
Garbodor just isn’t cut out for PvP and only barely makes the top 900 in the Great League.
🟡 Ultra League
Garbodor would need maxing out to level 50 with XL Candy to even try to compete, and even then, it’s just going to stink up the Ultra League.
🟣 Master League
Garbodor will swiftly be sent to the recycling bin if used in the Master League.
