Pokemon Go Guzzlord best PvP moveset

One of the best movesets for Guzzlord in PvP is Dragon Tail as a Fast Move and Brutal Swing as a Charged Move.

Dragon Tail is a powerful Fast Move with average energy generation. Combined with the low-cost Charged Move Brutal Swing, Guzzlord will be able to dish out some hefty damage early on, while also having dual coverage (both Dragon and Dark).

If you can afford a secondary Charged Move, you can use either Dragon Claw or Sludge Bomb, as they are equally good. It will depend on the type of coverage you need at the time.

Pokemon Go Guzzlord best Raid moveset

The best Guzzlord moveset for Raids consists of Snarl as a Fast Move and Brutal Swing as a Charged Move.

Out of Guzzlord’s move pool, these two make the best offensive set yet, as they are fast and strong attacks that can give you the upper hand against fellow Dark-type Pokemon, as well as Ghost and Psychic.

You can also go with Dragon Tail and Dragon Claw for a full-on Dragon-type moveset, however, it falls behind other mightier Dragons in the game.

Those are the best movesets you can teach Guzzlord for both PvP and Raids in Pokemon Go. Before heading into your encounter, check How to get Remote Raid passes and learn some useful catching tips. If you’re a competitive player, go to our list of the Best Pokemon in the game.
