Offensive Moves Explanation

Pound has STAB and is great in itself, but lacks type coverage.
Feint Attack can hit Psychic and Ghost-types super effectively.
Play Rough and Dazzling Gleam perform similarly on offense.
Hyper Beam does good neutral damage, but Wigglytuff’s Fairy charge moves are better.

Defensive Moves Explanation

Feint Attack is somewhat superior to Pound on defense.
Play Rough excels due to high power and an early damage window.
Dazzling Gleam is a stronger 2-bar move, though it’s easy to dodge.
Hyper Beam is very telegraphed and Wigglytuff’s bulk is actually quite bad for using it.

Rating Explanation

In days of yore (aka 2016), Wigglytuff was the surprise winner of Niantic’s stat conversion formula, with decent offensive stats relative to all other species that was bolstered by massive HP.

2016 feels like a long time ago. Wigglytuff is now bad. Its offense is decidedly trash, and while players still hype its huge HP, Wigglytuff’s double digit Def renders it about as frail as everything else. Its only positive attribute is a low max CP that lets it demotivate in gyms more slowly.
