• Dark Attacker:SnarlFoul Play

⚔️ Raids

Zoroark is a budget addition to your Dark-type Raid team. It is outclassed by all means but still puts in a decent amount of work.

• Snarl, Shadow Claw and Sucker Punch: Garchomp’s Fast Attacks. Sucker Punch is Zoroark’s Legacy attack. However, it is Snarl that is the preferred attack for raids.
• Foul Play, Sludge Bomb, Flamethrower and Night Shade: Zoroark’s Charged Attacks. For raids, Foul Play is the way to go. The other Charged Attacks are more PvP oriented.

Without taking Megas and Shadows into consideration, Zoroark is still surpassed by several other contenders like Tyranitar, Hydreigon and even Hisuian Zoroark. It is more of a budget attacker, something for newer Trainers who are still short of heavy but expensive Dark-type attackers. The lack of bulk is a major drawback for Zoroark in raids.

Despite being a legacy attack for Zoroark, Sucker Punch doesn't outperform Snarl in raids. The preferred moveset for Zoroark still remains Snarl and Foul Play.

🛡️ Gyms

The lack of bulk for Zoroark prevents it from being a reasonable gym defender.

• Great League:Sucker PunchFoul PlaySludge Bomb
• Ultra League:Sucker PunchFoul PlaySludge Bomb

🔵 Great League

PvP is where Sucker Punch lifts Zoroark's performance. Running Sucker Punch along with Foul Play and Sludge Bomb does improve its performance but Zoroark's potential is seriously surpassed by the 1500 CP cap of Great League. It can hit hard but is super glassy and is reduced to a mere fun or meme pick.

🟡 Ultra League

Even with a higher CP cap of 2500, Garchomp still struggles to make any kind of relevant impact in the Ultra League. In fact its win-loss record gets worse when compared to its Great League performance.

🟣 Master League

Any performance here is just an illusion!
