PVE Offensive Moves Explanation

  • Bite and Crunch go together for maximum DPS and the ability to deal Super Effective damage
  • Quick Attack, Hyper Fang, and Hyper Beam are all lackluster on offense.

PVE Defensive Moves Explanation

  • Quick Attack pulls ahead a bit in defensive DPS and neutral coverage
  • Bite is still okay, but most players will use Fighting Types to punch this rat into submission, so it's likely going to be very underwhelming.
  • Crunch is also resisted by Fighting Types, but it's the move that's most likely to actually see use on defense.
  • Hyper Fang is also okay.
  • Hyper Beam probably won't ever come out.

PVE Overview

Alolan Raticate... well, it triple-resists Ghost Type moves.... and that's where the positive review ends on the PvE-side.

Honestly, don't raise one of these little rats for PvE use, it's a let-down.

PvP Moveset Explanation

Bite or Quick Attack + Crunch and Hyper Fang or Hyper Beam

Alolan Raticate's fast moves are almost polar opposites of each other. Bite is known for its high 4.0 DPT (Damage Per Turn) and pitiful 2.0 EPT (Energy Per Turn), while Quick Attack leans much more on its above average 3.5 EPT and less on its damage of 2.5 DPT. The faster energy from Quick Attack is more appreciated when Alolan Raticate is looking to pressure with Crunch, but Bite makes the fat rat a hard counter against anything weak to Dark. 

Crunch is Alolan Raticate's fastest charge move and only Dark-type charge move, which makes it an almost must have. The choice between Hyper Fang or Hyper Beam is up to preference. Hyper Fang costs only 50 energy (5 more than Crunch) and can pressure with neutral damage, while Hyper Beam threatens a one hit KO against most opponents if unshielded. Just be vary of Alolan Raticate's weaknesses though, as it's unlikely that the fat rat will nuke an opponent before fainting. 

PvP Rating Explanation

Great League: 2.5 / 5

Alolan Raticate is a more of a specialist Pokemon in Great League, with a good stat spread and and a typing that hard counters Psychic and Ghost Pokemon. Normal typing allows Alolan Raticate to still fight back with neutral damage when its opponent would resist its Dark-type attacks, but also ensures its demise against "Counter" picks. It should be noted that this fat rat can pick up wins versus popular picks such as Lugia, Cresselia, and Sableye, which would help give it a higher rating if it didn't just flat out faint in the face of any of its weaknesses. 

Ultra League: 0 / 5

With a maximum CP of only 1705, Alolan Raticate is mostly limited to the Great League. 

Master League: 0 / 5

Don't do it man, it's not worth it.
