      The following chart shows Carkol's DPS and TDO for every fast and charge attack combination. This chart is useful for comparing the relative strength of Carkol's movesets. You can change the weather and the opposing Pokémon to see how it affects the rankings.

      Legacy Elite Fast and Charge Attacks can only be obtained during special events, or by using an Elite Fast TM or an Elite Charge TM. Legacy moves are marked with an asterisk (*). The table above provides information on different moves Carkol has in Pokémon GO, along with their corresponding DPS (Damage per Second) and TDO (Total Damage Output).

      PvE AnalysisPvE Analysis

      Recommended moves

      When Rolycoly evolves to Carkol, it gains the Fire typing, making this mid-stage evolution a Rock/Fire type. On the stats side, Carkol remains bad for PvE. It doesn't have a good ATK to make its damage output matter in Raids and the two double weaknesses to Water and Rock spells doom for Gym defense.

      PvP AnalysisPvP Analysis

      Recommended moves

      🔵 Great League

      Carkol has a higher stat product than its evolution Coalossal in the Great League, sporting more bulk and nearly the same offensive strength. However, it doesn't have a good enough moveset with both Carkol and Coalossal losing Incinerate, and the latter ending up a little better.

      As such, Carkol is rather underwhelming in this format, and you're better off using its evolution.

      With a max CP of only 1710, Carkol isn't suitable for the Ultra and Master League.
