Legacy Moveset | |
Sub-optimal moveset with zero viability |
Poliwrath needs Rock Smash for Fighting-type offense, though it is a so-so fast move.
Bubble pairs well with Hydro Pump, but there are better Water-type attackers out there.
Mud Shot lacks STAB, power, and coverage.
Dynamic Punch is one of the best charge moves out there, period, and strictly outclasses Submission.
Rock Smash does slightly more damage on defense than Bubbledoes, but has lower energy gain.
Mud Shot is useless on defense due to its low power.
Ice Punch hits many of Poliwrath's counters effectively, and it fires frequently due to having 3 bars.
Dynamic Punch is a great option with high power, STAB, and 2 bars. Submission is strictly worse.
Poliwrath's stats are disappointing, but its typing puts this Pokemon into consideration. Poliwrath tries to make a living doing the same thing that Machamp and Hariyama do, but worse. Its advantages are in its higher bulk and resistances to Iron Tail and Fire Blast, which can prove useful in Tyranitar raids.
On defense, Poliwrath formerly outdid its stats by virtue of Bubble's defensively oriented move parameters. Bubble is now a much different move, and thus Poliwrath is no longer remarkable on defense.
