"Here's a short list of the most reliable prestigers + movesets against common gym defenders (1000-1500CP)"

#PokemonGO: I recently posted this list of great prestigers if you like dodging, meaning you can use less bulky Pokémon to beat an opponent quicker. However, many of you pointed out that they prefer more balanced Pokémon so they don't risk fainting even though it may be slower.So here's a list of Pokémon that will beat common defenders with minimal risk of fainting even if you don't dodge (although it's always a good idea to try and dodge special moves unless your CP is high).Dragonite: Steel + DragonDewgong: Frost Breath / Ice Shard + BlizzardLapras: Frost Breath / Ice Shard + Blizzard / Ice BeamCloyster: Frost Breath / Ice Shard + BlizzardTentacruel: Poison Jab + BlizzardSnorlax: Psychic + NormalWigglytuff: Pound + Hyper BeamOmastar: Water Gun + Hydro PumpSlowpoke / Slowbro: Water Gun + PsychicVaporeon: Water Gun + Hydro PumpLapras: Ice + IceOmastar: Rock Throw / Water Gun + Rock SlideWigglytuff: Pound + Hyper BeamTentacruel: Poison Jab + Sludge Wave / Hydro PumpSlowpoke / Slowbro: Water Gun + PsychicArcanine: Fire Fang + Fire BlastArcanine: Fire + FireOmastar: Water Gun + Hydro Pump / RockslideVaporeon: Water Gun + Hydro PumpWartortle / Blastoise: Water Gun + Hydro PumpGolem: Mud Shot + EarthquakeExeggcutor: Psychic + PsychicButterfree: Bug Bite + Bug Buzz (if CP is high enough)Dewgong: Frost Breath + BlizzardLapras: Frost Breath + BlizzardParasect: Bug Bite + X-ScissorExeggcutor: Psychic + GrassButterfree: Bug Bite + Bug Buzz / Signal Beam (if CP is high enough)Parasect: Bug Bite + X-ScissorScyther: Fury Cutter + Bug BuzzVenomoth: Bug Bite + Bug BuzzGyarados: Dark + WaterElectrode: Spark + Thunderbolt (if CP is high enough)Wigglytuff: Pound + Hyper BeamRaichu: Spark + ThunderJolteon: Thunder Shock + ThunderVaporeon: Water + WaterParasect: Bug Bite + Solar BeamVenusaur / Ivysaur: Vine Whip + Solar BeamTangela: Vine Whip + Solar BeamVileplume: Razor Leaf + Solar BeamPoliwrath: Water + FightingVenusaur / Ivysaur: Vine Whip + Solar BeamParasect: Bug Bite + Solar BeamSlowpoke / Slowbro: Confusion + PsychicVileplume: Razor Leaf + Solar BeamSlowbro: Psychic + PsychicParasect: Bug Bite + Solar BeamTangela: Vine Whip + Solar BeamLickitung: Lick + Hyper BeamWigglytuff: Pound + Hyper BeamVenusaur: Grass + GrassCharizard: Wing Attack / Ember + Fire Blast / FlamethrowerGolbat: Wing Attack (double type resistance)Pidgeot: Wing Attack + HurricaneArcanine: Fire Fang + Fire BlastVenusaur: Grass + PoisonGolbat: Wing Attack (double type resistance)Charizard: Wing Attack / Ember + Fire Blast / FlamethrowerPidgeot: Wing Attack + HurricaneArcanine: Fire Fang + Fire BlastThis list uses kukui's dueling metric, which considers offense and tankiness equally although this may not be the best option in some circumstances. For example, an Arcanine with Fire Fang and Fire Blast will beat a Venusaur quicker than a Golbat of the same CP and probably won't die, however Golbat will have a greater % health remaining due to it's double resistance. So while Golbat is the safer option, Arcanine is more efficient and still quite safe (I use Arcanine).If you want to find out good prestigers against any defending pokemon + moveset, you can make a copy of my training calculator. via /r/TheSilphRoad http://ift.tt/2fsLvEZ
