Tank Build Explanation

Build Explanation
This build utilizes the Sp. Def. and Defense increase of Muddy Water to make Goodra as durable as possible and uses Power Whip to control enemy movement. However, Acid Spray can also work with the build, giving Goodra some mobility.
· Rocky Helmet increases Goodra's defense against physical attacks and HP. The item's passive effect also works well with Gooey's slowing effects.
· Assault Vest increases Goodra's resistance against Sp. Atk. damage and HP. It also allows Goodra to block Sp. Atk. damage via a shield.
· Focus Band improves Goodra's overall durability through increased defenses and provides survivability.
· X Speed gives Goodra extra mobility to get close to targets and use Muddy Water.
· You may also opt to use Full Heal to mitigate crowd control effects against Goodra.
· The build's Boost Emblem loadout should consist of 6 White Emblems to add more bulk and 4 Green Emblems for some damage. This is the minimum you should go for, and could be used even if you don't have some specific multi-color emblems.
· If you have emblems that have both White and Green colors (Scyther, Jumpluff, and Butterfree), you may opt to use them to reach a 6 White - 6 Green emblem effect. It depends solely if you have atleast two of the emblems mentioned above though, but always aim for the 6-White bonus first.
· Equip Emblems that improve HP to maximize Goodra's durability.
· Attack, and Critical-Hit Rate can be freely traded for the other stats.

Sustain Build Explanation

Build Explanation
This build is centered on keeping Goodra alive for as long as possible by using the healing effect of Dragon Pulse and the dash from Acid Spray to set it up. Goodra can also utilize the healing from Right as Rain for emergency situations to prolong its life.
· Wise Glasses gives a large amount of Sp. Atk. thanks to its percentage bonus, which is particularly benefitial for Dragon Pulse.
· Slick Spoon adds more Sp. Atk. and gives Goodra Sp. Def. penetration, raising its damage output further. It also gives a nice amount of HP for more durability.
· Focus Band gives Goodra the durability and survivability it needs to constantly perform its combo.
· Potion gives Goodra another source of sustain should it be necessary.
· The build's Boost Emblem loadout should consist of 6 Green Emblems to improve Dragon Pulse's effects and 4 White Emblems for additional durability. This is the minimum you should go for, and could be used even if you don't have some specific multi-color emblems.
· If you have emblems that have both White and Green colors (Scyther, Jumpluff, and Butterfree), you may opt to use them to reach a 6 White - 6 Green emblem effect. It depends solely if you have atleast two of the emblems mentioned above though, but always aim for the 6-Green bonus first.

List of Battle Items

Best Moveset

Move Explanation
Muddy Water ImageMuddy Water Muddy Water improves Goodra's tanking capabilities by increasing its defenses and reducing the opponents' damage when it hits them. It's also extremely spammable due to its low cooldown.
Power Whip ImagePower Whip Power Whip allows Goodra to constantly slow and damage enemies. The move's pulling effect also makes it hard for enemies to escape.

Since Goodra becomes more effective the longer it's alive due to Gooey's slowing effect, having a moveset that can prolong the Pokemon's life and can be perform easily during fights would be the ideal choice. Muddy Water can provide exactly what Goodra needs. The move's Sp. Def. and Defense increase coupled with its damage reduction effect not only makes Goodra more durable, it also weakens opponents' damage output. Moreover, it's extremely spammable due to its low cooldown, which can be reduced even more with Goodra's Boosted Attack.

On the other hand, Power Whip gives Goodra a reliable crowd control tool, constantly slowing enemies or pulling them in. This allows Goodra to stay close to enemies and hit them with Muddy Water.

To give Goodra more firepower, learning Dragon Pulse is the best choice due to the move's damage output. It can also provide survivability thanks to its healing effect. In this case, Acid Spray is the best complimentary move since it can easily set up the Dragon Pulse.

How to Play Goodra

Jump to Section

Slow Enemies Down with Gooey

Pokemon UNITE - Slow Enemies with Gooey

Goodra's passive ability Gooey, activates once Goodra takes damage. It splashes goo around nearby enemies and slow them down, so timing your usage of Tackle lets Goodra temporarily disable an enemy while also slowing them down.

Maximize Goodra's usage of Bubble and Tackle while also utilizing the slow effect of Gooey to push lanes during early game.

Synergizes Well with Supporter Pokemon

It is also worth noting that Goodra synergizes well with Supporter Pokemon allies, especially Comfey since it provides more sustainability with its healing abilities.

With Comfey as Goodra's partner, Goodra can brave the frontlines and soak in more damage and assist its allies to secure objectives and push lanes.

Hide in Tall Grass to Recover Health

Pokemon UNITE - Goodra Healing with Gooey
Another effect of Gooey is HP recovery and only activates when Goodra hides in tall grass. This is useful when Goodra needs to heal itself on the go and stay longer to assist its allies secure objectives and push lanes.

Farm Wild Pokemon to Level Up Quickly

Pokemon UNITE - Goodra Farming for Levels

During early game, choose Tackle as your first move in order to farm wild Pokemon quickly and reach level 5 to learn its upgraded damaging move.

Combined with the slow effect of Gooey, Tackle disables an enemy that gets hit, allowing Goodra and its allies to overwhelm an isolated target quickly.

Gain a Shield and Slow Enemies with Bubble

Pokemon UNITE - Goodra Gain a Shield with Bubble

Using Bubble allows Goodra to gain a shield that pops quickly when used twice. Dash towards a crowd of enemies with Tackle, then activate Bubble. Pop the bubble to hit surrounding enemies and slow them down.

This combo is useful for taking down wild Pokemon or when chasing an isolated enemy.

Soak Damage and Apply Debuffs on Enemies

Pokemon UNITE - Soak Damage and Apply Debuffs on Enemies

Goodra is equipped with self-sustaining abilities that lets it stay in fights longer while also applying slow or damage down on its enemies.

Chain these moves in order to stall enemy progression and assist your allies in scoring and securing objectives.

Apply Damage Downs with Muddy Water

Goodra can apply damage downs to enemies by simply going near them and using Muddy Water. The slow effect of Gooey and damage downs from Muddy Water also stacks, so utilize this strategy to your advantage, especially during teamfights or securing objectives.

Recover Health with Dragon Pulse

Pokemon UNITE - Goodra Healing with Gooey

When using Dragon Pulse, Goodra recovers its HP if the move hits enemies that are afflicted with Gooey. This move is perfect for playing defensively, since Goodra can safely attack its enemies from a ranged distance.

However, if your allies are retreating from a teamfight, it's best to stick with them and play defensively.

Stay in Teamfights Longer With Self-Sustaining Moves

Pokemon UNITE - Stay in Teamfights Longer With Self-Sustaining Moves

Goodra is a Defender Pokemon that is equipped with movesets that lets it stay in fights longer. Thanks to the effects of Gooey, Goodra can regain health by simply hiding in tall grass. Another health recovering move is Right as Rain, which is Goodra's Unite Move that heals itself when used, and all attacks are boosted while the Unite Move is in effect.

These moves are extremely important when it comes to securing Rayquaza, so make sure to have Right as Rain ready for use when the objective spawns. Avoid getting cornered and hard disablers, then use your Unite Move to heal yourself once the enemy team's Unite Moves are already on cooldown.

Pull Enemies Close with Power Whip

Pokemon UNITE - Goodra pulls Snorlax with Power Whip

Power Whip allows Goodra to pull enemies closer to where it stands. This move is perfect for chasing down retreating enemies, as it also slows them down. This move creates opportunities for Goodra and its allies to focus down on enemies and push lanes quickly.

Disable and Hinder Enemy Movement with Acid Spray

Pokemon UNITE - Disable and Hinder Enemy Movement with Acid Spray

Goodra's Acid Spray is another damaging move that slows down an enemy when it hits. After marking its target, Goodra can charge towards any direction it pleases. If this move hits the marked target, Goodra throws the enemy upwards and delays enemy movement for a short time.

This move is useful when Goodra is either disengaging from a fight, or chasing an enemy. When facing enemies that are tough or has high defense, fight them within an allied goal zone to stall for time.

Recover Health with Right as Rain

Another health recovering move is Right as Rain, which is Goodra's Unite Move that heals itself when used, and all attacks are boosted while the Unite Move is in effect.

This move is extremely important when it comes to securing Rayquaza, so make sure to have Right as Rain ready for use when the objective spawns. Avoid getting cornered and hard disablers, then use your Unite Move to heal yourself once the enemy team's Unite Moves are already on cooldown.

Utilize the Boosted Attack Effect

Pokemon UNITE - Goodra Right as Rain with Boosted Attack

Once Right as Rain is activated, Goodra gains a boosted attack effect which can be utilized by using combos. Chaining abilities like Acid Spray to slow enemies down with Dragon Pulse's damage and health recovery when it hits an enemy under the Gooey effect allows Goodra to effectively overwhelm enemies.

Be Extremely Wary of Crowd Control

Goodra relies heavily on boosted attacks to hasten its move's cooldown and deal damage, so be extremely wary of crowd control attacks from opponents. Always be mindful of activating Goodra's UNITE Move, Right as Rain, because Goodra is not unstoppable during its effect duration.

We suggest using anti-crowd control items like Full Heal and X Speed to help Goodra mitigate the hindrance effects.

Hard Counter with Disables or by Kiting

Although Goodra has high durability and multiple means of healing itself, its frontline gameplay can be easily exploited. Since Goodra needs to get close to its opponents to use Muddy Water or Dragon Pulse constantly, Pokemon that can stun it or kite it with ranged attacks will prevent it from performing its gameplay effectively.

Ability (Passive)

Gooey ImageGooey
Goodra IconGoodra

When the Pokemon is hit by an attack, there is a set chance it will spread slime around itself. The slime deals damage to opposing Pokemon and applies a Gooey slowing effect for them for a short time. The Gooey slowing effect decreases movement speed and can stack up to four (4) times per opposing Pokemon. When the Pokemon with this Ability enters tall grass, it continually recovers HP for 3 seconds or until it leaves the tall grass. Goodra will continue recovering HP when it re-enters grass during the active duration. This HP recovery effect goes on a 12-second cooldown after it's triggered. It will also cancel when Goodra receives damage or attacks an opponent.

Health Recovery is Proportional to Missing Health

After doing multiple tests, it seems that Goodra's health recovery from Gooey is proportional to the missing health. The more health missing, the more healing Goodra will receive!

The tests were conducted with a Level 15 Goodra with 10,250 Health.

Goodra's Health (in %)

Health Items Influence the Healing

Knowing that missing health is one of the factors for Gooey's health regen, health items that influences Goodra's max health will also have an effect on the healing! Higher max health would mean a bigger missing health, so the healing is increased!
