Crowned Sword Zacian PvE Analysis

Recommended moves

Say hello to the DPS monarch of Steel types, Zacian Crowned Sword with its uber powerful Behemoth Blade. While Zamazenta Crowned Shield takes an affirmative edge in TDO and possesses nearly the same DPS thanks to the stronger Behemoth Bash, Zacian Crowned is overall the top Steel type to use. It also surpasses Dusk Mane Necrozma and Mega Metagross in Steel powers. This is one of the strongest finds in Pokémon GO, making it a must-have addition to your team. 🗡️

⭐ You can transform Zacian Hero of Many Battles into Zacian Crowned Sword with Behemoth Blade as long as it has Iron Head in its moveset. This will require 1,000 Crowned Sword Energy and 30 Zacian Candy.

🗺️ Adventure Effect - Behemoth Blade boosts the ATK stat of all participants in a Raid or Max Battle.

⚔️ Raids

Zacian Crowned and Zamazenta Crowned perform similarly against Ice and Rock types Raid Bosses but against Fairy type Bosses, Zacian Crowned excels since its Fairy/Steel typing resists their damage.

🛡️ Gyms

N/A

🔮 Dynamax

While Zacian Crowned Sword does not Dynamax, it can be used against Max Battle Bosses and is a top Steel-type attacker against Fairy, Ice and Rock types! The Max version of Behemoth Blade is a powerful move that deals huge damage. Additionally, Zacian Crowned boosts the ATK of all battlers, making it an asset.

💎 The best PvE moveset for Zacian Crowned Sword is Metal Claw and Behemoth Blade.

Crowned Sword Zacian PvP Analysis

Recommended moves

Zacian Crowned Sword has exceptionally high stats, making it optimal for the Master League.

🟣 Master League

Zacian Crowned Sword is among the best Pokémon in the Master League, using its spectacular stats, 11 resistances, and powering moveset to put the entire meta on notice.

With shields up, it beats Black and White Kyurem, Mamoswine, Zygarde Complete, Melmetal, Zacian Hero, Mewtwo, Yveltal, Enamorus Incarnate, Togekiss, Dragonite, Dialga regular and Origin, Palkia regular and Origin, and Xerneas. Without shields in play, it also beats regular and Shadow Rhyperior, and Urshifu Single Strike Style.

It struggles against Metagross, and the League's premier Fire and Ground types. But otherwise, it is a very good safe switch and the 30% chance to debuff the opponent's DEF with Behemoth Blade is very handy. 👏

To cover its weaknesses, a Water Pokémon like Kyogre or Waterfall Primarina and maybe even Gyarados is sound. The third slot can go to a Ground type.

Zacian Crowned Sword has cemented its position among THE Pokémon to get as well as beat in the Master League. Use it well and climbing the GO Battle League Ranks is easier than ever. 🏆

💎 The best PvP moveset for Zacian Crowned Sword is Metal Claw, Behemoth Blade and Close Combat.
