Recommended moves

  • Fairy Attacker:FairyFairy WindFairyPlay Rough
  • Steel Attacker:FairyFairy WindSteelFlash Cannon

With a max CP that doesn’t even break 1500 CP, you can imagine how irrelevant Tinkatuff is for Raids. It is bulky in itself, but not tanky enough to defend Gyms against the typical attackers in Pokémon GO. The focus should be only on evolving it to Tinkaton.

Tinkatuff PvP Analysis

Recommended moves

  • Great League:FairyFairy WindFairyPlay RoughSteelFlash Cannon

🔵 Great League

While Tinkatuff maxes out below 1500 CP, its numerous resistances and high bulk give it some degree of viability in the Great League. Aside from shrugging away Dragon, Dark, and Fairy types, it also earns noteworthy wins such as Cresselia, Shadow Feraligatr, Fearow, Shadow Drapion, Furret, Azumarill, and Annihilape.

The issue here is that its own evolution, Tinkaton, is strictly better, so better just evolve it for a dominant match-winner in your team!

Tinkatuff isn’t tough enough for the Ultra and Master League.
