Keldeo (Resolute Forme) PvE Analysis

Recommended moves

Keldeo Resolute has the same stats as the Ordinary form, but this Mythical Pokémon has one additional perk that puts it miles ahead: the signature Secret Sword Charged Attack.

With this move in tow, Keldeo Resolute cements itself as the best non-Mega Fighting-type Pokémon in the game, just behind Mega Lucario and Mega Blaziken in DPS (both wielding Aura Sphere). In fact, Keldeo Resolute is significantly bulkier than Mega Lucario and Mega Blaziken, and as such, it often surpasses it in overall PvE performance. With Party Power, Keldeo Resolute is straight up better than both of those Megas!

STAB Fighting is one of the most useful weapons in Pokémon GO, making Keldeo Resolute a must-have Mythical.

Sadly, that's not the case in the Water-type department as even with a complete Water moveset, Keldeo Resolute can't outperform the likes of Primal Kyogre and even Hydro Cannon users like Mega Swampert, the Community Day Inteleon, and Greninja (that also has a Mega Evolution).

⚔️ Raids

Barring Mega Lucario and Mega Blaziken in Fighting-type DPS, Keldeo Resolute convincingly overtakes Mega Heracross, Terrakion and Shadow Conkeldurr. The icing on the cake is that Party Power makes Keldeo Resolute the best Fighting type in Pokémon GO. This is a fantastic attacker for Raid battles, and totally worth powering up and even a Bottle Cap. 🙌

Keldeo (Resolute Forme) PvP Analysis

Recommended moves

Secret Sword is a Leaf Blade clone in PvP, backed with a better offensive type (Fighting > Grass). Add Keldeo Resolute’s high ATK, and you see why Secret Sword is so strong in the GO Battle League. Moreover, the Water/Fighting typing gives it seven handy resistances, making it a highly oppressive attacker in battles.

Needless to say, its high stats make Keldeo Resolute convenient for the Master League, with the Mythical shying away from its true potential due to the Ultra League’s CP restrictions.

🔵 Great League

N/A

🟡 Ultra League

As explained, Keldeo Resolute is rather limited in this platform. It manages to reliably take out any of the top PvP Water type starters, that is, Empoleon, Feraligatr, Blastoise, and Greninja (but loses to Swampert). In addition, it also beats Golisopod and Crustle. The battle against Guzzlord is also close, and Keldeo Resolute can flip the matchup with just enough energy to use another Fast Move (preferably Poison Jab).

🟣 Master League

While Keldeo Resolute does have a challenging time due to the usual presence of Fairy- and Flying-type offense, it fares quite well in this meta. This Mythical poses a significant offensive pressure, eliminating Kyogre, Xerneas, and Zamazenta Crowned Shield effortlessly. It also takes down Landorus Therian, Metagross, Melmetal, and Primarina. In fact, it loses closely to White Kyurem, and can beat it with some more energy in its arsenal.

Unfortunately, Keldeo Resolute loses to all the Origin forms, Fusions, and Zacian (both Hero and Crowned Sword). So despite being threatening, it also goes down to some of the most popular (and powerful) titans of the Master League.
