⚠️ 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.
