How to Use Swift

Ideal for Early Engagements

Swift is a good move to use for early level poking and kiting enemies. Due to it having a good targeting system that can be rarely dodged by early level enemy Pokemon, make sure to harass enemies constantly so you can set up your jungler to visit your lane.

Good for Wild Pokemon
