Chandelure in the meta
PvE Analysis
Recommended moves
- Ghost Attacker:
Hex
Shadow Ball - Fire Attacker:
Fire Spin
Overheat
Chandelure is a powerful addition to the PvE meta, with an ATK higher than Gengar! Moreover, it's not weak to Psychic types like its Gen 1 peer, making it more useful in that regard 👀
But, it trails Gengar in DPS by having a less versatile moveset, making it an excellent pick that is complemented with its own niche 👏
What's more, it can do double duty as a Fire-type Pokémon and is one of the top counters to use! 🔥
An absolutely worthy investment in Pokémon GO 📈
⚔️ Raids - Hex and Shadow Ball make for a formidable moveset pair, dishing out high damage output to beat Ghost and Psychic type Raid bosses like a pro 😎
Do not use its Community Day move Poltergeist as it's strictly inferior to Shadow Ball ‼️
With Fire Spin and Overheat, it can blow up bosses weak to Fire-type moves 💥
🛡️ Gyms - A decent Gym defender that can hit attackers hard thanks to its 271 ATK stat
