Practical battle tips

Battle Tips

• Prioritize multi bar water type charge moves.
• If weather is sunny, faint rate change - bring more water type or ground type attackers
• Bring a squad of high water type attackers.
• Use dodge sparingly - focus on sustained DPS and shields if in a smaller group.

When to avoid

Avoid using fragile Fire or Grass attackers that will faint quickly to Camerupt’s strong Fire- and Ground-type moves. Also be cautious with Ice attackers if Camerupt carries Rock coverage.

Team size & strategy

2-3 high level trainers with top counters.4-5 casual trainers are required. Start with a weather-boosted Water attacker and preserve shields for your top DPS. If facing Eruption-style moves, rotate into a bulky Water or Rock Pokemon to absorb the hit and counter. Coordinate with your team to avoid overkilling and wasting resources.
