Honedge in the meta
PvE Analysis
Recommended moves
- Steel Attacker:Psycho Cut Gyro Ball
The Steel/Ghost-type Honedge lacks the stats and sheer power necessary to matter in PvE battles like Raids and Gyms. With its final evolution Aegislash being a Pokémon of great interest among players, Honedge is just meant to be fed Candy and eventually evolve. 🗡️
PvP Analysis
Recommended moves
- Great League:Psycho Cut Iron Head Gyro Ball
🧸 Little Cup
A staggering 12 resistances gives Honedge some degree of viability in the Little Cup. That said, it is unable to beat the biggest threats of this meta: Deino, Ducklett, Bronzor, Wynaut, or Seel. Even in unshielded scenarios, there's not enough damage inflicted to pick up a win. As such, it's best to put Honedge on the bench.
🔵 Great League
The same problems continue in the Great League but the situation is even worse as Honedge gets very limited offensive coverage against the diverse meta in this platform.
With a max CP of only 1571, Honedge is not viable in the Ultra or Master League.
💎 The best PvP moves for Honedge are Psycho Cut, Iron Head and Gyro Ball.
