Dive Build Explanation

This is a high-mobility build utilizing the Boosted Attack mechanic from Dive and the burst damage from Air Slash to take out opponents.

  • Choice Specs provides Cramorant with a nice amount of Sp. Atk. stat, and increases its minimum move damage, particularly for Air Slash.
  • Slick Spoon adds more Sp. Atk. stat and allows Cramorant to ignore a portion of its target's Sp. Def., resulting to more damage dealt.
  • Buddy Barrier gives Cramorant a large amount of HP for some durability, and grants it a shield when it uses Gatling Gulp Missile.
  • Energy Amplifier can be a replacement for Choice Specs, giving Cramorant a large damage increase during Gatling Gulp Missile and some cooldown reduction for its moves.
  • Eject Button gives Cramorant another repositioning tool on top of Dive.
  • X Speed can also work to serve the same purpose.
  • The build's Boost Emblem loadout should consist of 6 Green Emblems for more damage and 7 Black Emblems for some cooldown reduction. This can be achieved by equipping at least three (3) Emblems that are both Green and Black.
  • Equip Emblems that improve Sp. Atk. to further increase Cramorant's damage output.
  • Attack and Critical-hit Rate can be freely traded for the other stats.

List of Battle Items

Best Moveset

Move Explanation
Air Slash ImageAir Slash Air Slash deals a decent amount of burst damage when all projectiles hit. It also synergizes well with Dive.
Dive ImageDive Dive gives Cramorant a mobility tool that makes up for its lack thereof. It can be turned into a damage tool since each use turns Cramorant's attacks into Boosted Attacks.

This moveset gives Cramorant a nice balance of damage and mobility, which makes ups for the Pokemon's low mobility and durability. Dive improves Cramorant's mobility during fights. It allows the Pokemon to kite opponents since it turns Cramorant's attack into a Boosted Attack for each use. Air Slash allows Cramorant to deal high burst damage and also synergizes well with Dive.

Dive and Surf are Cramorant's first damage moves but comes in different forms. Dive is a dash move that deals damage to opponents in the designated area. It also gives Cramorant a Boosted Attack when its use, which can adds more damage. Surf is a straightforward damage move that also disables targets caught in its path.

Air Slash and Hurricane are Cramorant's second set of damage moves and differ only in their ease of use. Air Slash deals more damage compared to Hurricane but requires Cramorant to be at almost melee range for all projectiles to hit and deal maximum damage. On the other hand, Hurricane deals lesser damage but is simpler to use and stuns opponents.

Generally, Air Slash should always be paired with Dive since Air Slash requires proper positioning from Cramorant to be effective, which is something that Dive provides. Meanwhile, Surf and Hurricane typically go well together due to them being crowd control moves and the damage they can deal, which is more effective during fights.

How to Play Cramorant

Jump to Section

Pressure Your Opponents with Whirlpool

Whirlpool is the move you want to get at Lv. 1 as it allows you to farm Wild Pokemon and deal continous damage to your opponents from afar. Feather Dance can reduce your opponent's attack and movement speed, but it does not do any damage, so get Whirlpool instead.

Get to Level 6 Fast

Focus on farming wild Pokemon and get to level 6 as fast as possible so you'll gain access to your primary moves. Once you reach level 6, you can start to get aggressive.

Choose Moveset Based on Playstyle

You need to choose your moveset based on your preferred playstyle and build. Generally, there are two directions you can take for Cramorant, each having its advantages and disadvantages.

Choose Hurricane and Surf for Burst Damage

Choosing Hurricane and Surf gives you a powerful burst damage and crowd control combo. However, you always need to keep a safe distance from your enemies, preferably behind your allies.

Choose Dive and Air Slash for Mobility

On the other hand, Dive and Air Slash gives you incredible mobility, allowing you to slip in and out of fights. Use Dive to get close as possible to your target, then follow up with Air Slash immediately. If things go awry, use Dive again to disengage.

Keep Triggering Gulp Missile

Gulp Missile turns your next attack into a Boosted Attack when you have a specific interaction with Whirlpool, Surf, or Dive.

Gulp Missile: Cramorant Ability Effects

Step on the Whirlpool

In the early game, you can trigger Gulp Missile by stepping on the Whirlpool when you cast it.

Whirlpool: Cramorant Move Effect and Cooldown

Pass Through Surf Waves

If you're using Surf, you can trigger Gulp Missile by passing through the waves. Remember that the effect triggers for each wave so make sure to pass through both of them to utilize the Boosted Attacks.

Surf: Cramorant Move Effect and Cooldown

Use Dive

For Dive, you simply have to use it to trigger Gulp Missile. However, since the move itself doesn't do damage, you always need to follow up with a Boosted Attack each time you use it.

Dive: Cramorant Move Effect and Cooldown

Use Gattling Gulp Missile at a Safe Position

When using Cramorant's Unite move, you are able to deal a ton of damage in a short amount of time but at the cost of being unable to move. This can make it easy for other Pokemon to get to you and take you out during your Unite move. You will want to be at the back of your team or inside grass when you use it to make it harder for the enemy team to reach you.

Strike First

Fragile, Ranged Pokemon with High Damage
Alolan Ninetales Image Chandelure Image Decidueye Image Duraludon Image Espeon Image Gardevoir Image Pikachu Image Sylveon Image Venusaur Image
How to Beat
• Much like Cramorant, these Pokemon prefer to keep their distance from opponents while fighting and have a high damage potential. However, they are fragile and can be knocked out fast. Winning against them is just a matter of striking first.
• When using Surf and Hurricane, find an opening first before bursting them down.
• When using Dive and Air Slash, make sure to get close enough to them so that all of Air Slash's projectiles hit, or use Dive to dodge their moves and quickly follow up with a Boosted Attack.
• As a last resort, use Gatling Gulp Missile to finish them off but be sure that Cramorant is in a good spot.

Utilize Range Advantage

Brawlers
Azumarill Image Garchomp Image
How to Beat
• These Pokemon excel in close combat and rely mostly on their attacks to deal damage. They are also durable enough to tank Cramorant's damage. However, they need to get to melee range first before they can deal damage. Utilize Cramorant's range to win against them.
• When using Surf and Hurricane, keep doing the combo until they get knocked out but retreat when they try to get close.
• When using Dive and Air Slash, use one charge of Dive to get close to them and follow up with Air Slash, then another charge to move back out. Alternatively, just kite them by using Dive and following up with a Boosted Attacks.
• As a last resort, use Gatling Gulp Missile to finish them off.

Utilize Their Numbers

• Take advantage of them being in close proximity to each other by using Surf and Hurricane or spamming Boosted Attacks with the help of Dive.
• Alternatively, just use Gatling Gulp Missile to make them scatter but be sure Cramorant is in a good spot.

Group Up with Allies

Highly Durable Pokemon
Greedent Image
How to Beat
• These Pokemon are extremely durable and have means of consistently healing themselves, making it hard for Cramorant to take them down alone. With that, it's best to group up with allies to bring them down with the help of Cramorant.
