Here’s an overview of the best moveset to use for Porygon-Z in Pokemon Go, plus whether the Normal-type is any good for the game.
The fourth generation of Pokemon introduced another evolution to the Porygon family. Porygon-Z brought a new twist to the artificial Pokemon.
Porygon-Z is available in Pokemon Go. But what is the best moveset to give the Virtual Pokemon, and is it good for PvP?
Here’s a look at the best moveset for Porygon-Z in Pokemon Go.
Porygon-Z’s best moveset in Pokemon Go
The best moveset for Porygon-Z is to go with Lock On as a Fast Move and Tri Attack and Blizzard as Charged Moves.
Lock On has very low power. However, that’s not the purpose of the move. Its high EPS allows for an easy charge to transition into a Charged Move.
As for the Charged Moves, Blizzard is a high-power Ice move that can help against Dragon and Flying-types. Tri Attack, on the other hand, gives Porygon-Z a low-cost secondary option.
