Braviary's Tier Ranking & Meta Analysis

Read meta analysis

Braviary 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. 😐

Braviary PvP Analysis

Recommended moves

💥 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. 😵
