The Best Moveset in Pokémon
Вставка
- Опубліковано 16 чер 2024
- There's a ton of different moves in Pokémon, to the degree where it's almost overwhelming. And with only 4 move slots available, picking the best combination to deal with anything that comes your way can be a daunting task. In this video, I try to figure out the best possible moveset in Pokémon.
Oh and thanks for reading the description :) - Ігри
"The one pokemon that can pull off this moveset is none other than the legendary pokemon kyreum"
Smeargle: *I walk a lonely road, the only one that I have ever known*
to be fair, I think hitting something with a resisted attack is probably still stronger than a super effective wet paper bag attack from smeargle.
@@isaacsimpson8098 But to be fair, he can still USE it (even if it's the equivalent of hitting a elephant with a wet tissue), so it bears mentioning.
@@InsertNameHere649 fair, but going “Smeargle can do it” is unexciting 😂 It’s like always mentioning Shedinja’s immunities. It’s a given so I ignore it lol
@@shepskydad Didn't you also mention shedninja though?
So many weak pokemon with absurd gimmicks that entirely make them work. Shedninja, smeargle, literally every single pokemon that got a weather-setting ability in gen 7 (for those who don't know, torkoal, pelipper and gigalith got drought, drizzle and sand stream respectively) and I'm sure there's more I can't think of.
This is like saying me throwing a gun is just as effective as firing it though. Poor smeargle can't hit anything effectively!
How to hit every typing for super effective save for those without weaknesses:
Use metronome and be really damn lucky.
… I think I need to remake the video
@@shepskydad yah, this is big brain time
Metronome gives you perfect coverage within one moveslot, this move is broken!
@@SakhotGamer honestly it kinda is with their being a higher chance you get a strong move or a op one like spectral thief or meteor beam
you can also improve this moveset by getting a smeargle to learn thousand arrows, freeze-dry, flying press and shadow ball, hitting 1114 pokemon
I figured Ghost/Fighting was going to play apart in this since Marshadow (and now Annihilape) hit just about the entire game neutrally only needing their STABs

Ceruledge would probably be Uber if it came out in Gen 2 since it would have had (stab) Ghost and (non stab) Fighting coverage with Swords Dance and a max investment stab Fire Blast.
Always wished the Ghost type would have got the attention it gets now in the early days. It was always good in tandem with Fighting even pre-Steel nerf.

I have arrived to watch this particular piece of entertainment before anyone else. That is all.
You have earned my unconditional respect for your punctuality.
i made it 69 likes because i am funny
too much information. my idea is to concise this in one word: "first". I believe this may become a popular trend.
The best moveset is Block + Recycle + Slack Off + Heal Pulse.
It's the only moveset that has been banned from Anything Goes
Funbro?
What are you recycling?

You actually got me with the water thing. I was thinking to myself "water is pretty bulky, and common, seems more important to hit super effectively" and as soon as you pulled the rug I remembered freeze dry. Good moves.
Always liked Starmie's moveset potential with:
Surf/Hydro Pump
Thunderbolt
Ice Beam
Psychic
You can practically dent everything for neutral damage.
Plus its shiny is pretty cool with the blue gem
Can’t go wrong with Bolt/Beam
And it's fast
Lapras gets the same coverage surprisingly. Great for FireRed Elite 4
recover + minimize + cosmic power ;)
I remember Mamoswine getting incredible coverage with
- Icicle Crash
- Earthquake
- Knock Off
- Superpower
Great Tusk gets to replace Superpower with Close Combat and Icicle Crash with Ice Spinner, that mon is just a dream come true. So fun to use!
And now great tusk got supercell slam. Sadly that move is pure suffering to use
It is not possible, but replacing earthquake with thousand arrows would allow the set to hit steel/flying and fire/flying types super effectively, as well as hitting the bronzong line. If you add the ability scrappy it'd allow you to hit hissuian zoroark.
Bronzong still gets hit by Ghost so it checks out in that department
Wouldn't it be possible with Smeargle?
@@paulloy8728 i forgor 💀
@@douglasnorona6895 yeah i guess, but offensive smeargle...
@@jonasstuke528like yeah, Smeargle can have perfect coverage
But I also want to deal damage to the enemy team, not step on their toes
Mamoswine with ice shard, earthquake, knock off, and superpower
EdgeQuake and BoltBeam are notorious for a reason. Any pokemon being able to combine the two in one single moveset would be insane. Predicting that to be the answer in the video, but not sure
Tyranitar. Has access to bolt beam and edge quake. So does dragonite through the use of TMs
@@thatguy5779 I know
@@typhlosion7872 The way you worded your comment did not make it seem like you knew
I think Nidoking and Nidoqueen can access all four of those moves, too.
what quake
I see a lot of people talking about thousand arrows as a better option for the ground type move, but nobody mentioning flying press as the fighting type move. That way you can get super effective coverage against fighting types too! It loses supereffective damage against rock and steel types, but your ground type moves already cover against those. Obviously this could only work on smeargle though (since Hawlucha doesn’t get any ice or ghost type moves)
I'm not sure if it would affect that much the result since the only difference is hitting fighting pokemon with super effective moves, but you lose combinations between rock and steel with bug and grass.
Usually i spent a lot of hours in a Type Coverage Calculator just for choose the right moveset to my offensive pokemon, and i LOVED how this video totally represents me during those moments.
Also, my take for the best moveset, could go to the usual Dragonite with Extreme Speed, Earthquake, and Ice Spinner. It doesn't use any of his stabs, or does super effective to 80% of the pokedex, but, uses 3 really damn good moves, it hits either neutral or super effective, and leaves a free slot to roost, dragon dance, etc.
(Sorry for my horrible english XD)
this video + your channel are CRIMINALLY underrated!! loved this!
This was awesome. Great job on the research. I was admittedly one of those saying, "Ghost? Why not electric?"
Funbro:
Slowbro
Leppa Berry
Recycle
Heal Pulse
Recover
Block
so good it can't even be played in Pokemon Showdown's Anything Goes tier.
For someone who has been playing since the age of 3 and always had trouble making a type efficient move set, this helped me a ton. Truly amazing video. thank you so much
Also, I paused the video before your revealed the forth type and did mental math. saying out loud "it's either ghost or flying"
Great video as per usual. If only Freeze Dry was a TM, then at *least* Mew would also achieve this. But I suppose Kyurem can have this one achievement to its name, as a treat.
I'm not going to say this is the best moveset or anything, but my brother's Mega Gengar with Dazzling Gleam, Thunderbolt, Shadow Ball, and Focus Blast dealt psychic damage to me because I just had no chance. I didn't even have a Mega of my own. He has not been forgiven for this betrayal.
Ooof and that moveset is even more crazy since it’s Mega Gengar. Ghost coverage is just OP.
My immediate strategy was "oh, this is fine, I'll use my Pangoro" and then he pulls out Dazzling Gleam. Why. Why can the evil ghost learn a Fairy move. I hate it here
At least it didn’t have Encore/Substitute/Shadow Ball/Focus Blast
It also gets energy ball or giga drain if you want to recover hp on your glass cannon for some reason
@@AshenDust_ oh god I hated that set
My all time favorite is gen 3 swampert, earthquake ice beam surf and protect is so great, this set on it's own has carried me through much of the battle frontier
This is actually the standard set it uses in competitive as well (if u switch surf for hydro pump)
this isn’t possible, but if your fighting move is flying press, you now hit fighting types for super effective in exchange for steel and rock types (which are redundant, as you already hit them for super effective with ground).
Best Assault Vest moveset
Add TERA Ghost, Aurorus gains this moveset and with an Assault Vest and Snow Warning it would be an offensive snow setter that can take hits on both sides and TERA blast to cover Shedninja. It's also a special attacker, which means it can use tera blast as a normal type move outside of TERA too.
Tera ghost also turns Aurorus into fighting immune from a 4x weakness
I have always liked earth/rock coverage for hitting everything neutral
Classic edge quake
Earth
Nearly, for example breloom and Flygon, but they still have 4x weaknesses.
At first I thought great tusk was a great option for ground/fighting moves with ice spinner and Tera blast ghost, but then my hopes were gone when freeze-dry was mentioned
Even if it had Freeze Dry, due to it being Ground/Fighting Type you actually hit Water types harder when using your Stab moves.
Earthquake: 100 Power * 1.5 = 150
Freeze Dry: 70 Power * 2 = 140
It only really makes a diference when going against a Water/Flying or Water/Bug type which would otherwise resist your Stab combo.
I’ve been playing through a lot of Pokémon infinite showdown and I’ve been trying to figure this out for myself with regards to a hyper offense team, appreciate your in-depth look at this it’s been very helpful
You say you came up with the best move set, but your winners only have 3 moves. Focus Blast has 0% accuracy.
I would like to point out too that the Kyurem fusion forms are the only two that can perform this well because of their Mold Breaker type abilities. The type calculator doesn’t take into consideration abilities like levitate. So regular Kyurem wouldn’t be able to hit pokemon like weezing or the rotoms.
i knew freeze dry was coming lol
For the best moveset, im thinking:
1. Sketch
2. Also Sketch
3. A bit risky but Sketch
4. Very hot take here, i know, but Sketch. Could also be replaced with Sketch.
Granted you'll need to use all these in other places first but beyond that this moveset needs no explanation.
You said anything but FEAR so how about something more toxic in FUNbro?

While holding a Leppa Berry. So much FUN making your opponent sit in an infinite battle or rage quit
The fun is neverending bro
You’re a monster and I’ve never been more proud.
This was the comment I was looking for! FUNbro has to be best moveset
Love the content! Thanks for the videos.
Flippin love this! Now the best defensive or status moveset!!
I think that would be way harder to define objectively than just which types hit the most, since status moves are more situational than just damage
anything with rock slide + eq is pretty much the peak moveset for anything that can get it and is a move combo I use often.
of all 1198 pokemon in existance, only 8 total pokemon resist it (with 0 immunities): Brelooom, Toreterra, Lilligant, Virizion, Chesnaught, Decidueye, Toeadscrool, Toedscruel.
Only Grass+Ground and Grass+Fighting, which are answered by most other types.
It even hits schedninja! It hits 621 pokemon neutrally and 569 pokemon for super effective damage.
All the while leaving space for 2 entire other moves, it's great.
It all depends on the current moment's metagame and what you're going to face most of the time, furthermore it isn't recommended contain too many roles in one mon, so the best moveset is balanced with its partner mons' synergy. Right now, you can leave fighting only to your Garganacl counter, since others hitted hard by it (all dark types in OU plus iron treads) have better coverage with fairy, given the walking wakes, dragapults, roaring moons, hydreigons, garchomps and dragonites in almost every team, and water is a very desired type for the most used mon (great tusk) as well as forcing skeledirge to terastalize (or killing it), kill or heal clodsire (careful), deal with ting-lu, cinderace, garganacl, volcarona and moth, ceruledge and armarouge...
So yeah, my most valued mon is great tusk and the most used one as well, so I'd say the best moveset now has strong ground/fighting stabs/bulkup/rapid spin/knockoff. Tusk is the most used mon, and that's mainly for its moveset and stats, because there aren't any electric threats in the meta, its only OU defensive trait by typing is quad resistance to rocks and dark resist...
theoretically you could also add flying press to the mix for the fighting coverage, super cool vid
This video made feel so damn good about the random moves I chose on my Annihilape for the Battle Stadium in Pokémon Scarlet. Stomping Tantrum, Ice Punch, Drain Punch and Rage Fist ftw!
-Guillotine
-Fissure
-Sheer Cold
-Horn Drill
NOW YOU'RE PLAYING WITH POWER
Cant be best moveset with focus miss.
Jokes aside, this was extremely well made and fun to watch!
Might have missed it but I'm surprises there wasn't a Legend Plate Arecus Meme in this.
Just 3 and half minutes in and the puns are top tier :D "Let's Cross out Poison"
Best moveset:
Celebrate
Hold hands
Splash
Torment
What I would’ve done is only calculate how many competitive Pokémon are weak to a given 4 types. You aren’t gonna find not fully evolved mons or Luvdisc at the highest level of play. Yet they account for a good percentage of the results from Pokémondb’s coverage calculator
This isn't for competitive purposes, and even if it was, you would want to specifically hit whatever pokemon are good and common in the metagame you're playing in, not just a broad list of "competitive" pokemon
Given Ghost and Dark are largely interchangeable, it could be that with a dark move instead, a few more mons could use the full set
I have been yelling boltbeam in this entire video even though it's probably not right
"There's no moveset that hits everything for super effective damage"
Arceus with the legend plate: *"Are you sure about that?"*
Electric-Type Levitate Pokémon would still be fine
@@bdt2002gaming True. That's only one pokemon though, and there's ways around it
Love to see new poketubers rising up
great vid man
If you're willing to play Smeargle games, Thousand Arrows lets you add a few Pokemon to your list, including Eelectross and all of the Fire/Flying and Steel/Flying Pokemon
The fused Kyurem forms' abilities cancel Levitate, but Thousand Arrows is still better for those mixed flying types.
I knew since you said ice I was predicting you to talk about freeze dry which is really smart idea to hit water types aswell
I clicked for the thumbnail Tyranitar set that reminded me of my Gen 5 one.
You have gained a sub and a like bro !
Yeah, status goes wild. Soak/Thunderbolt on Lanturn would do work.
This process is actually how I decide the move sets of hyper offense or Playthrough Pokémon, especially for Arceus
damn that must have taken so long to calculate
Kyurem white moveset:
Freeze dry
Focus blast/hidden power fighting
Shadow ball
Earthpower
Item: expert belt
Freeze dry can also hit water type for supper effective
It can even hit Pokemon like palkia,peliper,swampert etc with 4x damage
Great video time to use this moveset in balanced hackmons 🌞
Flying press as a move for fighting would essentially give you 5 moveslots.
Come to think of it, I usually find myself using dragon type moves without ever realizing it's coverage is ridiculously bad. This was an eye opener
It would be interesting to instead compute which moveset would do the most damage on average, which I expect would lead to a very different set of moves in the end. At first I'd probably exclude stab bonuses, attack stats, movepools and abilities since that would make the computation way way harder. But just calculating average base power x effectivenss for every relevant combination of damaging move and pokemon seems possible. And while there are around 480 damaging moves in pokemon you would only need to consider the move of each type with the highest average base damage (plus a couple of exceptions like flying press etc) Then for each move you'd sum the damages for all 1,000 or so pokemon. Then select the move with the highest damage output as the basis, then from all remaining moves you would subtract any damages for pokemon which are less than the corresponding damage from the basis move. Then sum the remaining damages and select the move with the highest damage from that list. Rinse and repeat until you have selected 4 moves. This procedure doesn't technically guarantee maximum damage output but it should come pretty close. But ultimately you would probably be left with a moveset which only smeargle can learn, making the whole thing purely academic. But computing the highest damage moveset which actually exists (i.e. taking into account stab, attack stats etc) would be harder than I would want to attempt, although someone with more coding experience and a computer with some processing power could probably do it.
My first thought with this video was 'Freeze Dry.' Ice move which is strong, add super effective on water. Happy to see it acknowledged. It's my favorite move for a reason
I love the sass your doggo throws around
Totally subscribed once I saw the pupper 🥺
this reminds me of my endeavor to find the best possible moveset for the battle hall in gen 4. the idea was the same as yours, use a moveset that can hit lots of pokemon super effectively. I ended up with metagross, I don't exactly remember the moveset, but it had a ground type, an ice type and a fighting type move, just like the moveset you found. it's funny to think I did this in gen 4 though, when the options were very different from what we have today.
make more videos! you remind me of the some of the best big poketubers, you could hit it big
This is probably the best *specs* moveset, at the very least.
Although I will mention, not hitting the bulky AF corviknight for SE may make it viable to run an electric move somewhere on the set, because otherwise you’re relying on it to use roost. Very in-depth video though!
legend plate arceus "judgement is the moveset"
Golurk with earthquake, Dynamic punch, ice punch and poltergeist: am i a joke to you?
YEP. golurk is a monster with choice band too
whoa u found a good pokemon for the vid!
sadly, does not have freeze dry for those pesky waterbros
To maybe uptadr it I think that for the current moment flying electric fighting earth is a bit better than what you mentioned in the video which is cool because I think multiple pokemon can use those types. Love the video by the way
Alright, that's it. Mr. Rime is banned to ubers.
Fighting does theoretically have a move that it can run for more coverage being flying press with its damage calculation being either fighting or flying type
It’s actually simultaneously Fighting and Flying type, not just one or the other. In practice, it’s just worse than Close Combat
Tera blast would also let Mr. Rime use a special ground move. If it makes it’s way into SV in the future
Thousand Arrows should be the preferred Ground type move, as it can hit Flying type Pokemon, and Pokemon with the ability Levitate, which allows it to hit some Pokémon for Super Effective damage which you otherwise wouldn't, such as Skarmory and Eelektross.
Likewise, Flying Press should be the preferred Fighting type move, as the only negative effects of doing this are that some Pokémon are only hit for 2x Super Effective Damage instead of 4x Super Effective damage, and in exchange, you can hit most Fighting types, and, due to abilities, you can't hit Orthworm or Rotom Frost for Super Effective damage; Mold Breaker should fix that, and Thousand Arrows already fixes the latter.
Granted, now must be a mixed attacker, but that's a small price to pay for optimal coverage.
I love using mega aggron with iron defense, rock polish, body press, and heavy slam! Only legal in national dex sadly but it’s just so cool how bulky it is. Basically a super shucklebthat can actually kill stuff. Once maxed out it’s def can hit like 2500+. Making body press able to two hit KO anything that’s not a ghost type
A fun fact about the ground ice dual typing is that the only two type combinations to resist it without abilities factored in is ice bug and water bug. With abilities you add bronzong and orthworm to the mix (unless I’m forgetting anything)
Hypothetically using flying press for the fighting move would let you hit fighting types super effectively
Jus give Mr. Rhyme;
- Freeze Dry
- Focus Miss
- Shadow Ball
- Tera Blast Ground! 💡
awesome content bro more pls
Imprison and tranform is such a good combo
technically with a moveset of full one-hit ko moves, you can one-shot every single mon, which means it can hit every pokemon for "super effective" damage.
True, minus those with the Sturdy ability.
I’d argue that the best move set is
Body slam
Hyper beam
Blizzard
Earthquake
This allows Taurus to be a powerful late game cleaner, with body slam into hyper beam koing most of the format after a bit of chip damage
Bro has not played Pokémon in 25 years
WHAT YEAR IS IT?!?
I knew it was going to be Kyurem before we even got into the video 😂 I’m pretty sure there’s a video out there titled your team loses to Kyurem. That mon is a menace.
Poor forgotten Smeargle 🎨
Wonderful video, just one teeny tiny detail. While not possible on a single pokemon, there is a way to bump up that 1032 to a neat 1035. Namely tousand arrows. If you were to replace your ground move with thousand arrows, it allows you to hit the Eelektros line for super effective damage. Amazing video though
Teravolt/Turboblaze already deal with the Eelektros issue*
Fighting, Ghost, and Dark are a combination of 3 that hit absolutely everything for at least neutral.
Huh. Interesting. Thanks for the tip!
Haze, freeze dry, rapid spin, and snowscape/hail for forth slot on cryognal
If we’re going off of hypotheticals , flying press would close the gap even more with it being a duel type move now hitting bug types and fighting
It would be a great video if you did the best moveset for each generation of Pokémon.
with scrappy freeze dry thousand arrows flying press and a ghost move, you hit around 1100 mons super effectively and only missing out on bug and fairy in terms of types in general
The only downside is that it won’t get any KOs since Smeargle is the only one that can do it lol
@@shepskydad not even smeargle can do it because it doesnt get scrappy
in hackmons however...
ShepskyDad: "they're hitting over a thousand pokemon for super effective damage"
Me: bold of you to assume focus blast hits
Only way to make this set better is to replace ice beam with freeze dry.
If you want an annoying move that single handedly sets up a lot of bs strategies than soak is the best move. Especially since it allows everything to be hit super effectively with freeze dry alone
The best moveset including focus blast triggers me so hard
now this is my kind of video
Really wasn't expecting you to hit us with the freeze dry. Literally who even remembers that move
A heavily underrated move set i’ve used is Rest, Sleep Talk, Revival Blessing. Sleep Talk can call on revival blessing even if it has no pp left and can lead to a load of rezzes!
Hitting things for super-effective dmg is nice and all, but it means nothing if your move of choice dont have the necessary power to back it up.
Which i think is the case with Freeze Dry. Only really a good move when coming off of an Ice Stab. Otherwise you are better of using one of your neutral Stabs.
Still, these types DO work wonderfully together. Weavile in gen 8 being a great example, it ran Dark (pretty much the same as Ghost) Ice and sometimes Fighting.
Interesting. Signature moves throw a wrench it imo; really anything with a huge base power or crazy secondary effect can sort of negate the need for coverage. Moves like Outrage (pre fairy days) Focus Punch, Gen 1 Hyper Beam end up outdamaging Super effective moves with less power. Torch Song isn't broken but an example of what i mean with secondary effect.
Very very accurate. Like a boosting move + 3 coverage moves could be argued as better since you have the tools for success. That’s why I needed to simplify 😅
Belly drum, rest, snore, strength on Snorlax with a citrus berry
*Ghost Types have entered the chat*
Replicating this combination to the best if my ability, Great Tusk is able to do so very well. Earthquake or Headlong Rush is great for the Ground move, Close Combat for the Fighting move, Ice Spinner for the Ice move, and for the final slot, either Knock Off, Thunder Fang or Ghost Tera Blast. Slap on an Assault Vest and bam, you've got one of the best offensive SV Pokemon.
Leftovers and Heavy-Duty Boots are usually better than Assault Vest, and Rapid Spin is preferred as the third move slot on offensive variants. Thunder Fang is too weak and Tera Blast is too committal.
Also, you can make a smeargle with, thousand arrows, freeze dry, flying press and shadow ball, leaving only fairy and bug types not hitten supereffectively
effectively hitting 1114 pokemons
but as everyone know, smeargle is total trash
High quality content! Keep going👌
