PVP Mode Explanatory Notes

PvP Moveset Explanation
Dragon Breath + Body Slam and Dark Pulse

Mix Altaria and Vigoroth and you get Zweilous. The two-headed dragon brings very consistent damage with Dragon Breath (4 DPT, 3 EPT) and Body Slam (60 power, 35 energy), whether or not the opponent has shields available. Dark Pulse (80 power, 50 energy) is the secondary charged move of choice. On its own, it's a stronger move than Dragon Pulse, and Dragon Breath deals enough dragon damage, so Dark Pulse provides meaningful coverage against top Psychic- and Ghost-type threats in the game.

PvP Rating Explanation
Great League: 4/5

Zweilous is a beast of a Pokémon. It has positive matchups against Umbreon, Bronzong, Hypno, Jirachi, Haunter, Sableye, Grasses, and Lanturn. While you do have to keep it away from Charm users, Flyings (Skarmory, Altaria, Dragon Tail Lugia), Azumarill, and Counter users, its positive matchups and absolutely incredible moveset let this Pokémon run wild in the format.

Ultra League: 1/5

Only maxing out at 1839 CP, Zweilous really struggles to perform against threats that actually get close to the format's CP cap. Probably better to look elsewhere.

Master League: 0/5

Don't bring a baby to a godfight. Leave Zweilous down in Great League.
