Landorus (Therian Forme) PvE Analysis

Recommended moves

Landorus Therian is one of the hallmark Ground types in Pokémon GO, boasting high ATK and a brilliant moveset. 💯

This Legendary is a must-have in the game, so if you have one with high IVs, be sure to max it out. 🙌

⚔️ Raids

Excluding Shadows, Landorus Therian is a top-tier Ground-type Pokémon, just behind Primal Groudon and Mega Garchomp. 😎

However, keep in mind that when battling a Rock-type Raid Boss, Landorus Therian takes increased damage due to its Flying sub-typing. 🪽

🛡️ Gyms

Legendaries cannot be used as Gym defenders in Pokémon GO.

Landorus (Therian Forme) PvP Analysis

Recommended moves

🔵 Great League

N/A

🟡 Ultra League

Landorus Therian is quite fragile in the Ultra League, making it difficult to sweep the opposition despite its fantastic moveset. It can handle OP threats like Registeel, Typhlosion, Annihilape, and Skeledirge, but is underwhelming otherwise. 😶

🟣 Master League

Landorus Therian is among the strongest Pokémon in the Master League, benefiting from widespread coverage with Sandsear Storm (Ground-type move) and Stone Edge (Rock-type move). 👏

Its high ATK and versatile moves help it counter the omnipresent Steel and Flying types. Its signature move, Sandsear Storm, costs only 45 energy, deals a respectable 60 DMG, and is guaranteed to debuff the target’s ATK. 💪

Additionally, Stone Edge is an excellent move in general. You may even consider Superpower to handle pesky Ice types that Landorus Therian is weak to. Its low bulk makes it vulnerable to threats like Kyogre and Palkia, so proceed with caution. All in all, a premium Pokémon to use in the Master League! 👌
