Garganacl PvE Analysis

Recommended moves

  • Rock Attacker:RockSmack DownRockRock Blast

⚔️ Raids

Garganacl is a pure Rock-type Pokémon and the final form of the Nacli line. This Minecraft-shaped Pokémon is defense-oriented. As such, it does not perform well as a raid attacker, where higher attack stats are desirable.

  • Master League:GroundMud ShotRockRock TombRockRock Blast

🔵 Great League

Garganacl benefits and suffers from the exact same issues as its pre-evolution Naclstack. It has solid bulk and fast attack pressure. However, its pure Rock typing and a lack of coverage Moves leaves it very predictable and weak to multiple popular types.

🟡 Ultra League

Garganacle has really good bulk in the Ultra League. However, once again, its pure Rock typing and limited Movepool holds it back. Especially since the pure Rock typing leaves it weak to multiple types of Attacks, completely negating the benefits of its bulk.

🟣 Master League

Garganacl does not perform well in the legendary-dominated Master League.
