PVE Offensive Moves Explanation

  • Gust benefits from STAB and suits Tornadus's role as a Flying-type attacker.
  • Astonish has no use.
  • Hurricane isn't an amazing move, but is the best of the options available. 
  • Psychic is okay if no Charge TMs are available. 
  • Heat Wave and Focus Blast have no use. 

PVE Overview

Tornadus Therian Forme is actually the weaker version of its Incarnate Forme, unlike Landorus and Thundurus. With 28 less ATK than its Incarnate Forme and no significant improvement to its moveset, this Pokemon unfortunately is just another dex entry.

PvP Moveset Explanation

Gust + Psychic and Hurricane or Focus Blast

Gust hits hard with STAB, and provides decent energy gains. Astonish is one of the worst moves in the game. 

Psychic demands the least amount of energy among Tornadus's expensive charge moves, and is recommended solely for this reason. Hurricane costs less energy than the remaining options available and benefits from STAB to threaten significant damage. Focus Blast hits very hard and provides valuable coverage, but its energy demands makes it slow to access. Heat Wave is a poor move. 

PvP Rating Explanation

Great League: N/A

Tornadus Therian can't compete in Great League due to its high CP, but future events may potentially provide alternative ways to obtain Tornadus at a lower level. 

Ultra League: 2 / 5

Tornadus Therian has better stats for a CP-capped league than its Incarnate Forme, thanks to a lesser ATK stat that results in greater bulk. Access to Gust instead of Air Slash also improves its damage output significantly, making this variant the better performer of the two. Unfortunately its extremely slow charge moves are the biggest reason for its poor performance, and Flying typing and coverage aren't particularly valuable in a meta that's dominated by Giratina, Steel-types, and other powerful contenders. 

Master League: 1 / 5

Access to Gust is a perk for the Therian Forme that helps to offset the worse ATK stats compared to its Incarnate variant, and greater DEF stats gives it the edge in bulk. Unfortuantely with very cumbersome charge move options this Pokemon isn't gonna be blowing anyone away anytime soon.
