Move Performance Analysis

Top 10 moves used in 10+ battles

⚠️ Important Note:

  • This data shows moves actually used in battles, not move adoption rates in team building.
  • Some moves may be on the Pokémon's moveset but never used during a battle, so they won't appear here.
  • Win rate reflects performance in battles where the move was used.
  • For actual move adoption rates, please refer to Smogon Stats or other official sources.

Note about Win Rate Accuracy

Due to Urshifu's unique game mechanics, win rate statistics are inherently skewed:

  • Urshifu-* represents games where Urshifu was not sent out (form remained hidden). These are typically easier wins, resulting in higher win rates than actual performance.
  • Urshifu-SingleStrike and Urshifu-RapidStrike only include games where they were sent out and their form was revealed. This results in lower win rates than actual performance.
  • For the most accurate assessment of Urshifu's competitive viability, consider all three entries together.
