PvE Analysis
Recommended moves
Braviary has decent stats, but unfortunately, this Normal/Flying-type Pokémon is severely outclassed in power by many other Flying-type Pokémon. 🫢
💥 The best PvE moveset for Braviary is Air Slash and Fly.
⚔️ Raids
- With a pure Flying-type moveset, you may use Braviary in low-tier raids, but if you're really eager to use a huge raptor bird, just go for Staraptor instead. 🦅
🛡️ Gyms
- Even though it can counter common Fighting-type gym attackers, Braviary is a Normal/Flying-type Pokémon, meaning it still takes neutral damage from them.
- As such, it’s not ideal. 😐
PvP Analysis
Recommended moves
- Great League:
Air Slash
Fly
Close Combat - Ultra League:
Air Slash
Fly
Close Combat - Master League:
Air Slash
Close Combat
Brave Bird
💥 The best PvP moveset for Braviary is Wing Attack, Fly, and Close Combat.
🔵 Great League
- Braviary is frankly very disappointing in the Great League.
- Its Defense is quite low, and with an average moveset, it doesn't fly high in battles.
- It can't even consistently beat Pokémon it’s supposed to, losing to Annihilape, Primeape, and Jumpluff among many others. 🤐
🟡 Ultra League
- With better stats, Braviary gets more wins, but it still isn’t strong enough to be a top-tier battler.
- It benefits from resisting the many Ghost-types in the Ultra League.
- However, it still loses most battles. A moveset upgrade (such as Wing Attack buff) could help, but it remains a weak choice. 🫤
🟣 Master League
- The bird has fallen. 😵
