Torrent Effect

When the Pokémon deals damage to opposing Pokémon, or when a set amount of time passes, the Torrent gauge increases (max 100). If a move is used when the Torrent gauge exceeds a certain amount, the Torrent gauge is consumed, and that move becomes boosted. If the Pokémon's HP is below a certain percentage, the amount the Torrent gauge increases is greater.

How to Use Torrent

Attack Enemies to Fill Up

The only way to fill up the Torrent gauge is to attack enemies. However, take note that attacking Pokemon from the opposing team will fill up the gauge faster compared to attacking wild Pokemon.

Utilize the Boosted Effects of Moves

Move Additional Effect
Water Gun ImageWater Gun Deals increased damage.
Whirlpool ImageWhirlpool Increased damage and HP restored, and throws opposing Pokemon before ending with a slash.
Hydro Cannon ImageHydro Cannon Creates a whirlpool that deals damage over time and heals Empoleon when it's on it.
Peck ImagePeck Also applies a slowing effect.
Aqua Jet ImageAqua Jet Reduces Sp. Def. of Pokemon from the opposing team.
Metal Claw ImageMetal Claw Grants a shield.

Much of Empoleon's gameplay and strength comes from Torrent. When the Torrent gauge is filled, its moves get an additional effect that makes them more effective during fights.

It's best to play around filling up the Torrent gauge and utilizing the additional effects given to Empoleon's moves. It's important to note that Empoleon needs 50 Torrent gauge for the additional effects to trigger.
