With Kleavor’s current move pool, it will not be making any waves in competitive PvP content. That being said, Quick Attack provides higher overall DPS when combined with its Charged Moves.

The first Charged Move slot should go to Rock Slide. It’s Kleavor’s best Charged Move by some margin thanks to its Damage output and Energy cost.

The next Charged Move slot should go to X-Scissor as it can benefit from STAB.
