PvE Analysis
Recommended moves
- Ghost Attacker:
Astonish
Night Shade
Cursola has the same DEF and HP as Galarian Corsola, but its ATK is in a class of its own at an impressive 253! 👀
Unfortunately, it’s terrible in PvE due to its moveset, with Astonish and Night Shade leaving it more dead than it already is. 😭
⚔️ Raids
It’s a sad case for Cursola. Despite learning Hex and Shadow Ball in the mainline games, it is cursed (no pun intended) with a pathetic PvE moveset in Pokémon GO. 🫤 There are plenty of better Ghost-type attackers, so stick to those! 🙂
🛡️ Gyms
With poor defenses, Cursola doesn’t even have decent viability as a Gym defender. 👎
PvP Analysis
Recommended moves
- Great League:
Astonish
Night Shade
Power Gem - Ultra League:
Astonish
Night Shade
Power Gem - Master League:
Astonish
Night Shade
Power Gem
Cursola shares the same DEF and HP as its pre-evolution, Galarian Corsola, but embarrassingly, it’s totally outclassed. 🤐
Until it receives a moveset upgrade, Cursola is destined to remain a Dex filler at best. 😶🌫️
🔵 Great League
While Galarian Corsola is a top-tier meta Pokémon, Cursola is entirely forgettable. The pre-evolution is so good, you’ll regret evolving it! 😅
🟡 Ultra League
With Pokémon like Giratina, Trevenant, Dusknoir, Drifblim, and Gengar excelling as Ghost-types, Cursola is irrelevant in this league. 🥲
🟣 Master League
With its dreadful bulk and lackluster moveset, Cursola is easily outclassed. The Legendaries and Dragons of the Master League exorcise it without effort. 🫠
