PVE Offensive Moves Explanation

  • Water Gun is superior to Confusion for filling Golduck’s role as a Water-type attacker.

  • Hydro Pump is Shadow Golduck's strongest Charged Move, but Liquidation is just a touch weaker but far more reasonable thanks to being 2-bars.

  • Psychic, Cross Chop, Synchronoise, Bubble Beam and Ice Beam lose out on STAB and perform suboptimally against Golduck’s best matchups.

PVE Defensive Moves Explanation

  • Confusion is Shadow Golduck’s best move on defense, outperforming Water Gun by a huge margin.

  • Ice Beam is superior on defense due to having 2 bars and Grass-type coverage.

  • Liquidation is the best charged move for neutral damage, but it gives counters an easier time.

  • Psychic is a worthwhile move on defense thanks to having 2 bars, good power, and relevant coverage against Fighting types. It easily beats out Synchronoise.

  • Bubble Beam is weak, but it has 3 bars, which grants it some utility on defense.

  • Hydro Pump is powerful, but too slow to be useful on defense.

  • Cross Chop is too weak to be worthwhile.

PVE Overview

Despite the shadow boost, Shadow Golduck simply doesn't pose much of a threat in the raid/gym metas. If it's a favorite Pokemon of yours, then it's definitely better to use the shadow than the normal version in this capacity, but it's still a large investment with small reurns.
