| Update Date | Pokemon | Summary |
|---|---|---|
| 12/13 |
Tinkaton
|
Enters in A Tier • Tinkaton is simple enough to master and can definitely do well in low-elo games. |
| Pokemon | Tier | Best Lane |
|---|---|---|
|
Armarouge
|
|
Any |
| Difficulty to Use: Novice | ||
| Blazing Blaster | ||
| Armarouge's strong and easy-to-use crowd control moves definitely fits in low-elo games. It also has great scaling, allowing it to get stronger as the game progresses. | ||
|
Mega Mewtwo X
|
|
Any |
| Difficulty to Use: Novice | ||
| Physical Mega Evolution | ||
| Mega Mewtwo X is simple enough for low-elo players to master but is extremely powerful. Despite Mega gauge being a special mechanic and the central feature of the Pokemon, it's simpler to manage compared to exisiting special mechanics since the only way to trigger it is by attacking opponents, which is something that just happens naturally in games. The Pokemon also doesn't have any timings to account for and just relies on the natural progression of the game to get stronger. It's definitely a Pokemon that can easily dominate low-elo games. | ||
|
Mega Mewtwo Y
|
|
Any |
| Difficulty to Use: Novice | ||
| Psychic Mega Evolution | ||
| Mega Mewtwo Y is simple enough for low-elo players to master but is extremely powerful. Much like Mega Mewtwo X, its Mega gauge is simpler to manage compared to exisiting special mechanics since the only way to trigger it is by attacking opponents, which is something that just happens naturally in games. Although much fragile than Mega Mewtwo X, its damage and rapid-fire attack speed is something that low-elo players will definitely love. | ||
|
Pikachu
|
|
Top/Bot |
| Difficulty to Use: Novice | ||
| Lightning Strikes Twice | ||
| Pikachu is one of the easiest Attackers to use in the game! Its moves are easy to hit in succession since it's all auto-hit instead of targeting. Moreover, its UNITE move is the fastest to recharge in the entire roster, allowing you to consistently get bursts of strength when you need to. | ||
|
Venusaur
|
|
Top |
| Difficulty to Use: Intermediate | ||
| Set Beams to Kill | ||
| Venusaur is a powerful Attacker with a versatile kit. From high sustain and AoE damage with Petal Dance + Giga Drain, to long-ranged sniping with Solar Beam, the Pokemon gives you a lot of value. | ||
| Pokemon | Tier | Best Lane |
|---|---|---|
|
Cinderace
|
|
Any |
| Difficulty to Use: Novice | ||
| Fireball Glass Cannon | ||
| Cinderace excels in Low Elo due to his ability to keep a safe distance with its mobility moves. While its move combinations can take a while to get used to, its fast Standard Attacks can make up for any misses you might do. | ||
|
Delphox
|
|
Top/Bot |
| Difficulty to Use: Novice | ||
| Tornadoes of Fire! | ||
| Delphox can deal massive Sp. Atk. area and single-target damage from a long range. It's great at teamfights thanks to its fast-recharging Unite Move, Fanciful Fireworks. However, its low durability, lack of mobility, and weak early game are hurdles players must learn to get use to first. | ||
|
Eldegoss
|
|
Top/Bot |
| Difficulty to Use: Novice | ||
| Shields For Everyone | ||
| Eldegoss excels at keeping its teammates alive with AoE shields. It is efficient at this task, and the player that keeps their allies alive can win the game more easily. Unfortunately, your best play is your only play so if you need to make aggressive plays on the map, Eldegoss will not be able to do so. | ||
|
Espeon
|
|
Jungle / Bot |
| Difficulty to Use: Expert | ||
| Psychic Takedown | ||
| Espeon can deal high burst Sp. Atk damage both at single targets and in an area. Its Unite Move, Psychic Solare, is a great crowd control move with a large AoE, making it extremely useful during teamfights. However, Espeon's lack of mobility and low defenses makes it an easy target against more mobile Pokemon. | ||
|
Mimikyu
|
|
Top / Bot |
| Difficulty to Use: Intermediate | ||
| A Sneaky Shadow | ||
| Mimikyu can be a fun Pokemon to play for low-elo players. Even if the Pokemon's strength comes from its various mechanics, they don't require any special method to trigger and will trigger simply by playing the game normally, eliminating the hassle of thinking too much. It also doesn't have any glaring weaknesses that can be exploited by low-elo habits. The Pokemon is definitely an All-Rounder that is simple enough to use and excel in low-elo games. | ||
|
Slowbro
|
|
Top/Bot |
| Difficulty to Use: Intermediate | ||
| Isolating Dueler | ||
| Slowbro has the ability to semi-permanently immobilize a key target's with Telekinesis and Slowbeam. This makes team fights essentially become 4v4 where you can take out the enemy's key player. Unfortunately, these key team fights rarely happen in low rank and allies may even ignore the enemy you're locking down which can lead to a frustrating ranked game experience. Otherwise, a great pick to use in an organized team. | ||
|
Snorlax
|
|
Top |
| Difficulty to Use: Novice | ||
| Heavy-Hitter | ||
| Snorlax can either be a good frontline for defense or dish out damage with a Flail + Yawn combo. Low-Elo players will find Snorlax as a defensive and offensive powerhouse with its high durability and hard-hitting moves. | ||
|
Tsareena
|
|
Jungle |
| Difficulty to Use: Expert | ||
| Kicks that Kill | ||
| Tsareena has one of the best move kit synergy in the game thanks to its passive ability, Queenly Majesty. It does not require constant support and can carry games by itself with a lower mastery ceiling compared to other All-Rounder Pokemon. If you are looking for a Pokemon with a straightforward, spammable kit, look no further than Tsareena! | ||
|
Umbreon
|
|
Top / Bot |
| Difficulty to Use: Novice | ||
| Multi-functional Defender | ||
| Umbreon's versatility and ease of use allows it to perform well in Low Elo games. Its kit encourages aggressive plays and is simple enough to execute, which fits exactly the demands of Low Elo players. It also fits in any team composition without comprimises. | ||
| Pokemon | Tier | Best Lane |
|---|---|---|
|
Absol
|
|
Jungle |
| Difficulty to Use: Expert | ||
| Critical Strikes King | ||
| Absol boasts high mobility with moves like Night Slash and Sucker Punch that can strike enemies in a fell swoop. But, what separates this Pokemon from the rest is the amount of Critical Strike damage output it deals with. Not to mention how straightforward its moves are. Low Elo players can take advantage and just stomp enemies in their way. | ||
|
Alolan Ninetales
|
|
Top |
| Difficulty to Use: Intermediate | ||
| Freezing Combos | ||
| Alolan Ninetales is a strong Pokemon that can devastate team fights and out-of-position enemies with ease. It can easily apply disables to these enemies for easier takedowns. It is a strong pick but quite a difficult set up your moves when your allies are not cooperative enough. | ||
|
Azumarill
|
|
Top/Bot |
| Difficulty to Use: Novice | ||
| Whiplash! | ||
| Azumarill is a well-balanced Pokemon capable of dealing high critical-hit damage to a single target as well as tanking a bit of damage. Its jungling capabilities are surprisingly great since jungle camps only contain one Pokemon, allowing Azumarill to deal with critical hits 100% of the time and clear them quickly compared to other Pokemon. However, it does not perform well in team fights since enemies tend to stay close to each other, preventing Azumarill to deal with critical hits. | ||
|
Blastoise
|
|
Top/Bot |
| Difficulty to Use: Intermediate | ||
| A Spinning Tank | ||
| Blastoise offers great durability and high Sp. Attack damage. Although its moves are powerful enough to carry the game, Low-Elo player may find Blastoise's long move cooldowns too off-putting, especially if they miss the target. | ||
|
Ceruledge
|
|
Any |
| Difficulty to Use: Intermediate | ||
| A Complex Combatant | ||
| Ceruledge's moves contain mechanics and effects that must be taken into account for them to be effective in battle. However, low-elo players can still get used to them and eventually learn how they work. Ceruledge's basic attacks are also enough to make an impact in low-elo games, particularly due to the specific effect of Weak Armor. Moreover, Ceruledge can fit in any team composition since it can go in any lane. | ||
|
Chandelure
|
|
Top/Bot |
| Difficulty to Use: Novice | ||
| Light the Way | ||
| Chandelure's high offense stat makes it a suitable low-elo Pokemon. However, it can only perform to its full potential if players understand its special mechanics, otherwise, the Pokemon might not stand out. | ||
|
Charizard
|
|
Bot |
| Difficulty to Use: Novice | ||
| Burns the Brightest | ||
| Charizard is a sturdy All-Rounder that also packs a punch. Its kit is easy to learn while also being effective, having a mix of disables and direct damage. Although it has a slow start, it will be worth the wait when you finally evolve and learn Seismic Slam! | ||
|
Decidueye
|
|
Any |
| Difficulty to Use: Novice | ||
| The Sharpshooter | ||
| With a balanced offensive kit, Decidueye excels in getting free hits with its Standard Attack and quickly melting the opponent's HP. However, it lacks the mobility to escape in the middle of fights. Relying heavily on the Eject Button or a Supporter / Defender to survive fights. | ||
|
Dragapult
|
|
Jungle |
| Difficulty to Use: Expert | ||
| Sneak and Destroy | ||
| Dragapult is a Attacker with unique mechanics that relies on its attacks to knock out targets. It can deal area damage with its Boosted Attacks all while having a fast attack speed, making it a traditional attack damage carry Pokemon. Moreover, it has stealth and damage amplification via Phantom Force, and it has the first ever charge-based Unite Move, Dreep and Destroy, which works great with items like Energy Amplifier and Buddy Barrier. However, such mechanics might be overlooked in Low Elo games, which prevents the Pokemon from performing to its peak level. On top of this, Dragapult's attack damage will be underwhelming for Low Elo players considering it's built as a damage dealer. | ||
|
Dragonite
|
|
Jungle |
| Difficulty to Use: Expert | ||
| To The Skies! | ||
| Thanks to its passive ability, Multiscale, Dragonite is sturdier than most All-Rounders in the roster. Its Standard Attacks also have a chance to stun, which is huge when picking fights solo. Its Draco Impact has a forgiving cooldown compared to other Unite Moves, not to mention being almost universal, making stealing objectives easier. | ||
|
Ho-oh
|
|
Top/Bot |
| Difficulty to Use: Novice | ||
| Life Giver | ||
| Ho-Oh's high durability and high damage potential allows it to perform just fine in low elo games despite having a kit that's quite complex and tricky to use properly. It's also strong from the early game and scales well into the late game, so it won't have an issue with power loss. | ||
|
Lapras
|
|
Top/Bot |
| Difficulty to Use: Intermediate | ||
| Lapras Express | ||
| Lapras can suit the needs of Low-elo players. It's effective right from the start and just gets stronger as the game progresses, allowing Low-elo players to worry less about leveling up and focus more on fighting. However, its kit does contain special mechanics for players to consider to fully utilize it, which may get overlooked and undermine the Pokemon's potential. | ||
|
Leafeon
|
|
Any Lane |
| Difficulty to Use: Intermidiate | ||
| Solar-powered Eevee | ||
| Leafeon's scaling, high mobility, and high damage are traits that suit the demands of low-elo players. However, its kit has important mechanics that require attention to squeeze every bit of damage and additional effects from them, which is a red flag for low-elo players. | ||
|
Machamp
|
|
Any |
| Difficulty to Use: Intermediate | ||
| Unstoppable Force | ||
| Machamp is a strong single-target destroyer that can take out key targets in team fights. The move Submission makes it unstoppable as well as the boost in stats from its Unite move. Nothing can hinder Machamp from reaching its target. | ||
|
Meowscarada
|
|
Jungle |
| Difficulty to Use: Intermediate | ||
| Powerful Paws | ||
| Meowscarada can excel in low-elo game. Although it has a wide array of mechanics to account for, the amount of damage the Pokemon can deal and how easy it is to use makes it somewhat suitable for low-elo games. | ||
|
Metagross
|
|
Top/Bot |
| Difficulty to Use: Intermediate | ||
| A Resilient Robot | ||
| Although Metagross' gameplay has some complexity, there won't be any significant performance issues for the Pokemon in low elo games. Metagross can be a great pick for low elo players who want to try a new Pokemon that's slightly complex than what they're used to but is not too complicated to use. The Pokemon's damage potential and versatility is well suited for low elo games. | ||
|
Miraidon
|
|
Any |
| Difficulty to Use: Expert | ||
| Skill-Intensive Attacker | ||
| Miraidon's kit and gameplay requires a high level of skill to pull off properly, which may dissuade low-elo players from picking the Pokemon. Its moves can be difficult to aim and control, particularly Charge Beam, Electro Dirft, and Bright Future Meteor Storm, and their effectiveness comes mainly from their mechanics. Failure to trigger and utilize these various mechanics will undermine Miraidon's potential. | ||
|
Scizor
|
|
Jungle |
| Difficulty to Use: Intermediate | ||
| Metamorphosis | ||
| Scizor's unique ability to evolve into another Pokemon with different stats and gameplay is something that would be fun for Low Elo players to experiment with. However, neither evolution offers something that other Pokemon don't already do, making Scizor merely an alternative pick rather than the star of the game. | ||
|
Sylveon
|
|
Bot |
| Difficulty to Use: Intermediate | ||
| Hyper Damage | ||
| While dealing a good amount of damage, the targeting of Sylveons moves is either random or locks you in animation. If you aim Hyper Voice incorrectly, you will be stuck attacking in the wrong direction for a short while. Learning to properly use its skills will be rewarding, but will take a while. | ||
|
Talonflame
|
|
Jungle |
| Difficulty to Use: Novice | ||
| Focused Hunter | ||
| Talonflame is one of the burstier Speedsters in the game. It can deal high amounts of damage before the enemy Pokemon can even blink. Abusing this in low ranks where players do not pay attention too much to enemy positions makes Talonflame a great low-rank hyper-carry as long as it stays a safe distance. | ||
|
Tinkaton
|
|
Top / Bot |
| Difficulty to Use: Novice | ||
| Pint-sized Strength | ||
| Tinkaton's gameplay suits that of low-elo games as the Pokemon just becomes stronger as it fights opponents due to its ability, Mold Breaker. It's also easy enough to master and will do well in matches. | ||
|
Zacian
|
|
Jungle |
| Difficulty to Use: Intermediate | ||
| The Royal Hound | ||
| Although Zacian is definitely a powerful Pokemon, the skills and knowledge players must have to use the Pokemon to its full potential might be off-putting for low-elo players. Fortunately, the Pokemon's attacks does more than enough damage to rip through virtually any Pokemon, especially in low-elo games. | ||
| Pokemon | Tier | Best Lane |
|---|---|---|
|
Blaziken
|
|
Jungle |
| Difficulty to Use: Expert | ||
| Scorching Striker | ||
| Blaziken is a high-risk-high-reward Pokemon. Its combo-heavy and mechanic-based gameplay requires high skill and understanding, making it a demanding Pokemon to master and play to its full potential. Although it has great potential, the Pokemon is naturally unsuitable for low-elo players. | ||
|
Buzzwole
|
|
Bot |
| Difficulty to Use: Intermediate | ||
| True Heavyweight | ||
| Buzzwole is a momentum-based All-Rounder that can take on groups of enemies with its combos. However, its core gameplay of Muscle Gauge management, precise positioning, and proper use of its moves and ability may be too demanding for Low Elo players. Failing to keep track of any of them results in a waste of the Pokemon's potential. | ||
|
Clefable
|
|
Top/Bot |
| Difficulty to Use: Novice | ||
| Waggle to Win | ||
| Clefable has argubly the best healing move in the game thanks to Moonlight. It has a large AoE, and its healing scales with Clefable's Sp. Atk., allowing more room for amplification. However, considering that low-elo players usually pick damage delears instead of supporters, Clefable might not be to their liking. | ||
|
Crustle
|
|
Top/Bot |
| Difficulty to Use: Novice | ||
| Killer Defense | ||
| Unlike other Defenders, Crustle is focused more on dealing damage to enemies and zoning them out of the fight. It cannot, however, win a match by itself and still relies heavily on teammates. Additionally, its moves are rather hard to target and Low-Elo players may find it difficult to use Shell Smash or Rock Tomb to their full effect. | ||
|
Darkrai
|
|
Jungle |
| Difficulty to Use: Expert | ||
| A Dark Entity | ||
| Darkrai's kit contains special mechanics and effects that need attention in order to play the Pokemon to its full potential. This makes the Pokemon quite a bad pick for low-elo games. | ||
|
Dodrio
|
|
Jungle |
| Difficulty to Use: Expert | ||
| Puts the Speed in Speedster | ||
| Dodrio can put pressure on the enemy team by constantly roaming around the map and scoring points, forcing them to keep an eye on their goals or fall behind on points. However, this specialized gameplay may be off-putting for Low Elo players since they're focused more on fighting than anything else. Moreover, even if they choose to play it traditionally, they'll find it hard to win fights since they need to continuosly fill up the Sprint Gauge before using Dodrio's moves to maximize their damage and effect. | ||
|
Duraludon
|
|
Top/Bot |
| Difficulty to Use: Intermediate | ||
| Titan-Level Threat | ||
| Duraludon dishes a ton of AoE burst damage that can win games. Its mechanics are also pretty easy to grasp so it is definitely a great, powerful Pokemon to start with. Its best move, Dragon Pulse, is AoE and not a skill shot so a player can aim the move without much effort. | ||
|
Gardevoir
|
|
Any |
| Difficulty to Use: Intermediate | ||
| Psychic Prowess | ||
| Gardevoir is a strong attacker that relies on proper positioning and precision to deal damage to enemies from afar. Its strong team fighting move, Fairy Singularity, allows it to win fights easily by obliterating groups of enemies. Unfortunately, organized team fights rarely happen in low ranks and its lack-luster farming ability makes it a mediocre pick in Low-Elo. | ||
|
Gengar
|
|
Jungle |
| Difficulty to Use: Expert | ||
| Beware the Shadows | ||
| Gengar is an effective sing-target assassin that can sustain itself with HP recovery when it hits a target with its moves. Although its variety of combos can easily delete targets in an instant, you will need proper aim and timing to pull it off, which may be difficult if you are just learning the ropes. | ||
|
Glaceon
|
|
Bot/Jungle |
| Difficulty to Use: Intermediate | ||
| Piercing Ice Shards | ||
| Glaceon's ice crystals can shred through even the toughest Pokemon. However, since its effectiveness relies solely on the amount of ice crystals it has, Low-Elo players may forget to max them out first before using Glaceon's moves. | ||
|
Goodra
|
|
Top/Bot |
| Difficulty to Use: Intermediate | ||
| Slime Away! | ||
| Goodra fits the Defender role just as well as other more prominent Defenders. However, Goodra's kit contains mechanics that can be easily overlooked by Low-elo players, preventing them from using the Pokemon to its full potential. Also, Goodra's relatively slow scaling may be off-putting to Low-elo players considering there are better alternatives like Snorlax. | ||
|
Inteleon
|
|
Bot/Jungle |
| Difficulty to Use: Intermediate | ||
| Sneaky Sniper | ||
| Inteleon's high, late-game damage output certainly suits low elo games. However, its complex mechanics and gameplay makes the Pokemon hard to pick up and play to its full potential, which is off putting for low elo players. | ||
|
Lucario
|
|
Any |
| Difficulty to Use: Intermediate | ||
| Power Up! | ||
| Lucario is the definition of a strong Pokemon. It is durable, it has high damage output, and it has mobility. However, because of its move mechanics, Lucario is one of the more difficult to play Pokemon and may not be suitable for low elo players. It is best to master other All-Rounders first before trying Lucario out. | ||
|
Mew
|
|
Any |
| Difficulty to Use: Intermediate | ||
| Improvise, Adapt, Win | ||
| Mew is a highly versitile Pokemon thanks to its ability to change its moves on the fly, allowing it to adapt to all kinds of situations it finds itself. However, its gameplay does require a high skill ceiling compared to other Pokemon if it's to live up to its potential. This might be off-putting and too demanding for Low Elo players. | ||
|
Mr. Mime
|
|
Bot |
| Difficulty to Use: Intermediate | ||
| Undercover Damage Dealer | ||
| Mr. Mime is a Supporter Pokemon that can alter the battlefield to generate advantage for the team. It makes use of the environment and its wall abilities to land nukes and stun enemies at the same time. This requires high mastery of the Pokemon and is quite difficult to pull off for the uninitiated. | ||
|
Psyduck
|
|
Top/Bottom |
| Difficulty to Use: Novice | ||
| Psychic Support | ||
| Although Psyduck's arsenal of crowd control moves are effective, they do contain mechanics and effects that need to be taken into account to maximize their use. This makes Psyduck not necessarily suitable for low-elo games. | ||
|
Wigglytuff
|
|
Bot |
| Difficulty to Use: Intermediate | ||
| Tanky Supporter | ||
| Wigglytuff's gameplay revolves around disabling the enemy team in multiple ways to open them up for easy take downs. Even with its tankiness and good amount of crowd control, these will not be properly utilized in Lower Elo solo climbing. You will still be dependent on your teammates to capitalize on the advantage you give them, which may not always happen. | ||
|
Urshifu
|
|
Any |
| Difficulty to Use: Intermediate | ||
| Iron Fist | ||
| Urshifu's effectiveness in combat relies mostly on the player's mechanical skill rather than the Pokemon's innate strength. Its combos need to be performed in the correct order and manner for players to achieve Urshifu's full potential. While it does well enough on its own, it can only do so if the player puts more effort than usual, which can be off-putting for Low Elo players. | ||
|
Trevenant
|
|
Bot |
| Difficulty to Use: Intermediate | ||
| High Sustain and Durability | ||
| Trevenant can sustain itself through HP recovery, which makes it a hard Poekmon to knock down. However, its moves are also tricky to balance early on and you have to learn its move combos for it to become effective. Though it may find use in higher elo matches, in the lower elo he is negligible to enemy Pokemon that can go past its defenses and kill squishier Pokemon. | ||
|
Zeraora
|
|
Jungle |
| Difficulty to Use: Expert | ||
| Dangerously Fast | ||
| Zeraora is a capable Speedster that can deal quick damage thanks to its highly mobile kit. However, its moves are generally hard to work with as it is prone to missing, leaving you vulnerable as a result. With its slow move upgrades combined with a slow early game, you will have to be an experienced Zeraora player to utilize its strengths to their fullest. | ||
|
Zoroark
|
|
Jungle |
| Difficulty to Use: Expert | ||
| Destructive Combos | ||
| Low-elo players may find Zoroark's dependence on combo gameplay to be hard to execute as it mostly spells doom every time you miss. Still, you may find strength in its arsenal of dash moves, which gives you plenty of ways to get around enemies and even the map itself. Plus, its unite move, Nightfall Daze is the least complex unite move among the Speedster lineup. | ||
| Pokemon | Tier | Best Lane |
|---|---|---|
|
Aegislash
|
|
Jungle |
| Difficulty to Use: Expert | ||
| Slice Through Anything | ||
| Aegislash introduces new mechanics that are very much different from the current Pokemon UNITE meta-game. The addition of a new boosted attack and the new forme switching mechanic between Shield Forme and Blade Forme could be hard to grasp for newer players. Aegislash is definitely a Pokemon for more experienced players in the game. | ||
|
Blissey
|
|
Bot |
| Difficulty to Use: Novice | ||
| Pocket Support | ||
| Blissey is a full-fledged support Pokemon that excels in providing heals and buffs to its allies. In low elo, players are rarely able to make use of said buffs. Combined with Blissey's low damage output, you're better off picking another Pokemon if you want to carry the team. | ||
|
Comfey
|
|
Bot |
| Difficulty to Use: Novice | ||
| Over-attachment Problems | ||
| Comfey revolves around attaching itself to an ally and keeping them topped up with healing or shields, while at the same time hitting them with disabling moves. Comfey introduced a very new mechanic, but it is also Comfey's biggest problem in the lower ranks. Since it relies heavily on teammates, its capability to carry is close to none - even worse than the likes of other Supporters like Blissey and Eldegoss. |
||
|
Cramorant
|
|
Top/Bot |
| Difficulty to Use: Expert | ||
| Gatling Gulp! | ||
| Controlling Cramorant will need you to get the hang of proper positioning and good targeting of its crowd control skills. In the right hands, Cramorant's disables will open opportunities for easy take down - that is, if your teammates can capitalize on it. Moreover, its lack of proper mobility moves may always leave you pinned down if you are not careful enough. | ||
|
Falinks
|
|
Any |
| Difficulty to Use: Expert | ||
| A Complex Combatant | ||
| Falinks' kit contains multiple mechanics that significantly impact the Pokemon's effectiveness while fighting, particularly its formations. Such mechanics might be confusing for low-elo players. Playing the Pokemon to the highest level requires solid understanding of its mechanics and top-notch skill from players, making it unsuitable for low-elo games. | ||
|
Garchomp
|
|
Any |
| Difficulty to Use: Intermediate | ||
| More Bite than Bark | ||
| Garchomp has insane potential when it gets to fully evolve and learn its move upgrades. However, the Pokemon still suffers from a weak early game that makes it an easy target. While it is a powerful Pokemon overall, it may need a lot of effort just to stabilize, and low-elo is a difficult place for that. | ||
|
Greninja
|
|
Any |
| Difficulty to Use: Intermediate | ||
| Complex Ninja Skills | ||
| Greninja has good escape moves, amazing damage, and strong fighting power. The only issue in the Low Ranks is ease of use, as its kit needs you to have extensive knowledge of the map as well as placement when fighting. An inexperienced trainer will have difficulty maneuvering through fights and fumble their moves. | ||
|
Greedent
|
|
Top/Bot |
| Difficulty to Use: Expert | ||
| Cheeky Damager | ||
| Greedent's moves are focused around disrupting the enemy with Covet while pressuring their HP. They combos have a steep learning curve to master so this Pokemon is not recommended for Low Elo play in general. As a Defender, Greedent excels in zoning out enemies rather than defending or healing its teammates. | ||
|
Gyarados
|
|
Top / Bot |
| Difficulty to Use: Intermediate | ||
| From Flailing Carp to Flying Dragon | ||
| Gyarados is not suitable for low elo games. Its evolution mechanic will confuse low elo players since Gyarados doesn't simply evolve by leveling up, unlike other Pokemon. Also, it can be a tedious task for low elo players to fill up the effort gauge as they have to first figure out what actions will fill it, which is just an extra task that they wouldn't want to undertake. Moreover, Gyarados' primary moves are tricky to use, which is very off putting to low elo players. | ||
|
Hoopa
|
|
Bot |
| Difficulty to Use: Intermediate | ||
| Unbound Power | ||
| Hoopa is a different kind of Supporter Pokemon where it utilizes its teleport mechanic to generate an advantage for the team. However, this playstyle demands a coordinated team to become usable. Though using Shadow Ball and Trick is a viable option, this move combination is not as effective in terms of damage to carry the team. | ||
|
Sableye
|
|
Top / Bot |
| Difficulty to Use: Intermediate | ||
| Scion of Chaos | ||
| Sableye offers a lot of stuns and slows for the whole team to take advantage. Moves like Confuse Ray and Feint Attack open up many ways for you to support the team by causing havoc. Moreover, its invisibility gameplay via Prankster allows you to maneuver around the battlefield undetected. Unfortunately, Sableye's playstyle is not easy to get used to because of its unique moveset. Expect to have trouble dealing damage and getting your shots on point to take full advantage of your moves' effect, especially if you in an uncoordinated team. | ||

| Although Tyranitar can deal massive damage, it can only do so once it reaches level 9 since that's the only time when it gets all its moves. Because of this, it struggles hard and is a vulnerable target in the early game. If it is unable to reach level 9 before or when the first boss Pokemon spawn, it won't have much of an impact in the late game. | ||
