Klinklang, the Steel-type Pokemon from the Unova region, has a strong defense and plenty of resistances, so here are its best movesets if you dare take it into Pokemon Go battles.

Recently, Pokemon Go made the Steel-type creature Klink more accessible by adding it to 1-Star Raid battles. These helps trainers get its third stage Klinklang, which is only obtainable through the evolution method.

Those looking forward to gathering the 125 Candy required to evolve Klink into Klang and finally Klinklang might be wondering which movesets are best for both PvP and Raid battles in order to exploit this Pokemon‘s powerful defense.

Pokemon Go Klinklang best PvP moveset

The best moveset players can teach Klinklang for PvP encounters are Thunder Shock as a Fast Move and Mirror Shot as a Charged Move.

Even though the Fast Move Metal Sound benefits from STAB, it’s better to go with Thunder Shock, as its high EPS (energy per second) makes it a better fit.

As for the Charged Moves, all of them have a extremley high energy cost except for Mirror Shot. It might not be as a strong move as the other three, but it does give a STAB bonus and is pretty fast.

If you can add a second Charge Move, do it and pick Zap Cannon to counter Water and Flying-type with an outstanding debuff nuke.

Pokemon Go Klinklang best Raid moveset

Klinklang’s best moveset for Raid battles consists of Metal Sound as a Fast Move and Flash Cannon as a Charged Move.

Klinkklang might not be great at Raid battles, but players can still try their luck pushing its typing to the fullest with both Steel-type moves.

As Thunder Shock, Metal Sound has a high EPS, with the difference that it benefits from STAB. Pairing it with a same-type move like Flash Cannon will give Klinklang a very much needed damage boost.
