Best Pokemon for Fluffy Tail

This item is currently not recommended for any Pokemon.

When to Use Fluffy Tail

Fighting Boss Pokemon

The damage bonus from Fluffy Tails is helpful when fighting Boss Pokemon. It can also leave them stunned for a while, giving you a window to bombard it with damage without fear of retaliation.

Wild Pokemon Guide

Whenever Available

Fluffy Tail has a relatively short cooldown time. It's best to keep using it while taking down wild Pokemon whenever it's ready to use in order to farm efficiently.

Fluffy Tail Effect Test

Mr. Mime ImageMr. Mime

247 798 (247 + 551) About 3.2 times

The purpose of this test was to determine how much increase in the damage multiplier has been made by the August 18 Patch Update. The test was conducted by equipping Fluffy Tail to different Pokemon, activating it, then noting the damage multiplier for each Pokemon.

Damage Multiplier Increased About 1.14

Lucario's Damage Multiplier Comparision
Before the Patch After the Patch
1.5139 2.65

As a result of the test, based from Lucario's data, the damage multiplier seems to have increased by about 1.14. It is also found the damage multiplier varies depending on the Pokemon. Furthermore, it can be inferred that the reason for Pokemon like Venusaur and Alolan Ninetales having a high damage multiplier is because of their Special damage type.
