Today I want to share the strongest Pokémon for attacking with each type of move. I prefer to have my movesets include two moves of the same type so they're both super effective against the same types of Pokémon. In this episode, I'll break down the top 3-5 Pokémon of each type offensively.

Nick:I'm sorry for breaking your servers Silph roads, so I bought a shirt from your website and posted a link to it in one of my videos!
(Breaks servers again)
*buys shirt as support*
(breaks servers)
It's super effective!
TrainerTips Chose Nick!
Nick uses Malfunction!
It is super effective!
Hershey Blank if he breaks their shirt-selling servers they might not mind so much.
Your full ads are annoying. Glad it got you a car.
Having said that, I love both Trainer Tips and The Silph Road.
Damn that is one sexy shirt.
Haha. Appreciate the support, Nick. Keep being awesome!
when battling a gym, how does it auto fill your 6 pokemon? does it think you could win with those or is it completely random?
this is a good question. i have been wondering the same.
can someone answer?
SupermansCaramel It's a choice from the game based on the CP of your Pokemon, your favorite pokemon, and the type advantage, but is not necesarilly the ones you win with.
SupermansCaramel pretty sure it's a mix between how much health they have left and their CP
its a combination of your strongest pokemon. most likely they will have super effective attacks or resistances against the enemy pokemon. ive noticed it takes the stronger pokemon into account when generating the 6 pokemon and not so much the first ones you encounter at the bottom of the gym. so in some cases you might not even have a good counter for the weakest/1st pokemon you fight
+Ratthapol Supasopon that is trying to answer a completely different question
Hi all,
I wanted to suggest a fews ideas that would bring back some people to the game,and keep people interessed into that game at least 1 or 2 hours a day:
Niantic needs to create mini-daily-quests:
Those "missions" would reset every 24 hours,at midnight for exemple of your local time.
These quests could be either gym/fight oriented or pve/farm oriented:
1st quest idea: Decrease 2k prestige of an ennemy gym (it would intensify activity around gym and it would push and reward people to fight gyms) Even the 50k gyms would fastly be decreased by thousands with a fews people doing their daily quest) (also pushing beginners to try gyms and familiarize them with it)
2nd quest:Capture 25 pokemons (people would at least walk around and play for an hour or so for this daily)
3rd quest:Spin 25 pokestops (pushing people to move around and rewarding them,can be accomplished while doing the 2nd quest)
4th quest : Perform 10 "great throw" (would push people to increase their accuracy,and add a reward for being a good thrower^^ )
5th quest : Capture 2 evolved pokemons in the wild,it could be pidgeot,golbat,raticate or dragonite w/e (there would be a bit of luck involved on this one,but you could accomplish it in half an hour or try hard 1hour+ to finaly find this 2 evolved pokemons.Who doesnt like a bit of RNG involved ;p )
You would have each quest in progress and reseting every 24 hours like i said.
Like eggs interface,you would have 1st quest : 0/2000 2nd quest 0/25 etc and it would update according to what you do in game.
For each quest accomplished you would be rewarded a "merit badge" an other form of currency,that you would not be able to buy with dollars.
You would earn a maximum of 5 merit badges per day .
The merit badge store would include for exemple:
-10 merit badge exchange for : 1 lucky egg or 1 encens or 50 pokeballs or 1 lure
-15 merit badge for : 1 incubator
-25 merit badge for :1 10kms egg or 20k stardust
-50 merit badge for : 1 item that re-roll the dice for an attack of your pokemon
(its just what come out of my mind,infinite possibilies there!)
Some rewards would fit the low lvl ,willing to boost their exp (lucky egg/lure)
Some rewards would fit the people willing to complete their pokedex (incubator/10kms egg)
And some rewards would be more end-game oriented (stardust/re-roll the dice on some beast pokemon attack)
Niantic could even put a new 6th daily bonus quest,that would be different every month
There is so much to do with that game.
They accomplished the most difficult part collecting all those datas during 10 years and pulling out a big game like this.Now that they earned billions,i think its time to hire a fews more guys that only work on this type of things,and developpe this game to give GOALS to the players.
Sry for my grammar and stuff,english is obviously not my mother tongue -(
Like this comment,so Nick can see it and suggest those ideas in some videos.Maybe it ll come to Niantic ears :)
Moins
serathor83 really good idea! 20k stardust is optimistic though 😉
serathor83 nick needs to see this
Yea i understand,again its just some numbers that came out of my head,it could be 15 or something,just to give us some daily purpose and motivation to open the game.It would feels good to be rewarded,and to have a different way to collect items like incubator etc
Yea :) again the numbers i wrote down could be different of course,i just didnt want to write "X startdust" "X merit badges" etc
serathor83 smart,i love it,i hope niantic hear it,please
Come on, dude. A fan even gave you a powerbank and you don't carry it around while playing the most battery intense game? :/

I evolved 2 psyducks in a row and got water gun + hydro pump for both and cried a bit because i remembered nick is yet to still get a golduck with that moveset
you're a sooo lucky. I evolved about 10 of these and never got that moveset D:
I evolved many of em but i just got C-H, C-P, W-P... none of mine have W-H..
I evolved four or five and still haven't got it for Golduck. I did power up a nearly perfect IV starmie with that moveset and it can take down a 2500 arcanine in about 15 seconds, so I am happy with that for now. But no luck with golducks.
That's how I feel with my three Sandslash that have Mud shot/Earthquake
I feel the same way when I got myself a Sandslash with Mud Shot Earthquake.
Vaporeon is going to be a lot tankier than blastoise. Literally has tank on his back.
Dear SilphRoad Team,
Just hire Nick already!
Niantic should hire him to deal with the combat stats and such :P
Zach Trainer actually as the community manager. He gives 1000x the info about go that Niantic does.
ronj7677 got me 😂😂😂
1000x0 is still zero, lol
Yes! And he could tell them when they're making a real dumbass decision like the 30mph pokemon spawning, or the just banning all jailbroken devices!
This guy puts so much effort into his video editing and research, he deserves more subscribers
They should make some pokestops into Pokemon centres that are the same as pokestops but u can heal your Pokemon for free there cuz I keep running out of revives :(
Jake Quaza I have a pokemon cementery... I can't heal them all
Jake Quaza u can power up your Pokemon once and that gives it 1 hp. If ur out of revives just power it up and then use some potions
Random Guy that really sounds like it would use up alot more resources. You can get revives and potions from pokestops but you can't get candy and stardust from them.
Good idea random guy thanks!
Random Guy Yeah, but I run out of potions too 😭
I just want to clarify that best attacker does not mean the best to use while attacking an enemy gym or training up your own team's gym for that matter. What Nick is rating them by is highest DPS. Which gives you a sense of which is best, but some pokemon have more balanced overall stats with health and defense, and even though their attack isn't the highest of all of them with the highest DPS move set, the stronger overall stat pokemon such as Vaporeon will WAY out perform pokemon such as Golduck.
I have come up with a better list based on the overall stats + move set on which is most effective in actual battle while controlling the pokemon (attacking a gym).
Following the video's types:
Normal - Snorlax w/ Lick+Hyper Beam
Fire - Arcanine w/ Fire Fang+Fire Blast
Water - Vaporeon w/ Water Gun+ Hydropump
Electric - Raichu w/Spark + Thunder
Grass - Venusaur w/ Vine Whip + Solar Beam
Ice - Lapras w/ Frost Breath + Blizzard
Fighting - Machamp w/ Karate Chop + Cross Chop
Poison - Muk w/ Poison Jab + GunkShot
Ground - Rhydon w/ Mud Slap + Earthquake
Flying - Pidgeot w/ Wing Attack + Hurricane
Psychic - Exeggutor w/ Zen Headbutt + Psychic
Bug - Scyther w/ Furry Cutter + Bug Buzz
Rock - Golem w/ Rock Throw + Stone Edge
Ghost - Gengar w/ Shadow Claw + Shadow Ball
Dragon - Dragonite w/ Dragon Breath + Dragon Claw
Dark - Arcanine w/ Bite + Fire Blast
Steel - Dragonite w/ Steel Wing + Hyper Beam
Fairy - Wigglytuff w/ Pound + Play Rough
I also have a 2nd and for some 3rd top picks (either different pokemon or same pokemon with just a different move set) for each category cause I know not everyone can get a Muk.
Leave likes or thumb up if you guys like or find this info useful.
2nd/3rd tier choices
*Note that I include charge attacks for some of the types that aren't for that charge move because when fighting, using charge moves will still be more effective than the fast attack move that may be super effective with the type advantage*
Normal - Snorlax w/ Zen Headbutt + Hyper Beam
(3rd is a toss up between Snorlax w/ Lick + Body Slam and Wigglytuff w/ Pound + Hyper Beam)
Fire - Arcanine w/ Fire Fang+Flamethrower
(3rd Flareon w/ Ember + Fire Blast)
Water - Blastoise w/ Water Gun+ Hydropump
(3rd Vaporeon w/ Water Gun + Aqua Tail)
Electric - Jolteon w/ Thundershock + Thunder
(3rd Electabuzz w/ Thundershock + Thunder)
[Raichu is only #1 because it's quick attack is Spark which has better DPS than Thunder shock, but it's stats are slightly lower.]
Grass - Venusaur w/ Vine Whip + Petal Blizzard
(3rd Venusaur w/ Razor Leaf + Solar Beam)
(if you really can't find Bulbasaur)
[4th Victreebel w/ Razor Leaf + Solar Beam]
Ice - Lapras w/ Ice Shard + Blizzard
(3rd Lapras w/ Frost Breath + Ice Beam)
[4th (actually still Lapras with Ice Shard + Blizzard, Lapras' stats compared to Cloyster is op) but Cloyster w/ Frost Breath + Blizzard is a worthy meantion]
Fighting - Primeape w/ Low Kick + Cross Chop
(no 3rd worth using, most fighting types against normal types usualy is already bad, Nick explained this in a vid about Snorlax)
Poison - Muk w/ Poison Jab + Sludge Wave
(3rd Weezing w/ Acid + Sludge Bomb)
Ground - Golem w/ Mud Slap + Earthquake
(3rd Sandslash w/ Mud Shot + Earthquake)
Flying - Pidgeot w/ Wing Attack + Aerial Ace
(Tied for 2nd Pidgeot w/ Wing Attack + Air Cutter)
Psychic - Exeggutor w/ Confusion + Psychic
(3rd Hypno w/ Zen Headbutt + Psychic)
Bug - Nidoking w/ Furry Cutter + Megahorn
(I know Nick will be mad at me but.... 3rd
Parasect w/ Bug Bite + X-Scissor)
Rock - Golem w/ Mud Slap + Stone Edge
(3rd Omastar w/ Water Gun + Rock Slide)
Ghost - Gengar w/ Shadow Claw + Dark Pulse
(No 3rd)
Dragon - Dragonite w/ Dragon Breath + Dragon Pulse
(3rd Dragonite w/ Dragon Breath + Hyper Beam)
[4th Gyarados w/ Dragon Breath + Dragon Pulse]
Dark - Gyarados w/ Bite + Hydropump
(3rd Aerodactyl w/ Bite + Hyper Beam)
Steel - Aerodactyl w/ Steel Wing + Hyper Beam
(Note: Steel type move sets DPS aren't that good I actually recommend any strong pokemon that counter's Ice, Rock, Fairy with other move sets instead of Steel type moves, even Dragonite with Steel Wing + Dragon Pulse or Hyper Beam isn't good)
Fairy - Clefable w/ Pound + Moonblast
(3rd Wigglytuff w/ poind + Dazzling Gleam)
Hopes this helps everyone become better trainers.

Thank you for going through the trouble of compiling this list and putting it on here, definitely appreciated! I have a small question, which Nick may well have addressed before, but because his videos are quite long and there are a lot of them I don't always get to watch everything he had put up ^^; If you had two of the same pokemon, and one had perfect IVs, but not the best move set; while the other had, say, 82% IVs but the best move set, which one would you recommend investing in? As I sometimes find myself faced with this problem and end up choosing the lower IV one with the better move set (so long as the IVs are above 80%).
Rainy Jane the 82% one as 82 is quite high and if the perfect IV one had the worst possible moveset then definately the 82% one.
Ayerst Family Thank you, definitely appreciated; I guess it's still a bit hard to decide when there's a perfect IV pokemon but with a move set somewhere in the middle... ie, not the worst one, but not the best either XD
Rainy Jane still go with the 82 because I get 82% is really good
disclaimer: this is about bug type, we all know its not great.
you have parasect listed 3rd in your ranking of bug types, and justify parasect being your go-to because its not weak to psychic, meaning its more useful against exeggutor.
however id recommend a pinsir instead, and heres why. Amoung bug type pokemon, pinsir has the highest max cp. It has x-scizzor just like parasect, so it can attack between each of exeggutors attacks. And of course, it is a bug type only pokemon, so it wont take super effective damage from psychic. I know you didnt go into extreme detail because of time and, well, who are we kidding, its bug type, but this is for anyone else who cares :)
No, Pinsir's Fury Cutter is worse in every way than Bug Bite. Neither Pinsir or Parasect take super effective damage from Exeggutor's Psychic quick attack, so not sure what you're saying there. Parasect double resists Exeggutor's Solar Beam if he has it, where Pinsir only has one type that resists it.
Thank you, i was looking at incorrect info in regards to bug bite and fury cutter. I didnt take into account a solarbeam exeggutor, but that wont make a large difference given it is still resisted. The approx 400 cp difference in the long run of comparable parasects and pinsirs still makes the pinsir more desirable in my opinion. Not that it matters much in attacking an exeggutor, but pinsir doesnt have nearly as many weaknesses as parasect either.
Eillwinnas2 what was the secret package he said like a week ago?!
Parasect is actually weak to psychic. Scyther's bug buzz can be safely used between any of Exeggutor's charge moves, so I don't see how Parasect with x-scissor is better.

Best Pokemon Go channel on TH-cam! Let's get this channel to a million subscribers!!! Nick deserves it!
Guess who just had a Snorlax on his Nearby?
Guess who couldn't find said Snorlax on his Nearby because said Nearby system is broken?
Yup this guy.
It's because you didn't like those "Like or you'll never find a rare pokemon again" comments.
rip
The in-game tracking system does suck, and it takes too much time to find the pokemon. But you simply dont know how to use it, you could've perfectly gotten that Snorlax
sub me
me too
Hey Nick,
Questions about leveling up and taking down a gym:
-What's the breakdown for max prestige loss/gain at all gym levels?
-How does attacking Pokemon CP choice affect max prestige loss/gain?
Victreebel is a better Poison-type attacker than Muk according to the Excel sheet with Moveset damage calculations. Victreebel with Acid + Sludge Bomb has higher Gym Offense than Muk with Poison Jab + Gunk Shot. This would make Victreebel the best Poison-type Pokémon.
yeh his list has mistakes. That, and Charizard missing from Fire and Flying attacker lists
You're right, I overlooked Victreebel for Poison types. It is the strongest Poison type with Acid+Sludge Bomb. Charizard ranks slightly lower than Magmar with Ember+Fire Blast, though.
Trainer Tips Hi Nick, 4:30am is dedication, nice dude!
more like 1 am for us west coasters
Weezing learning Acid is also another legacy move. Now it can only learn tackle.
I'm a instinct player too, and have only recently found your TH-cam page, here's a another Tip that I use as well, when taking gyms, if you ever run out of revives, Power Up your dead Pokemon, it will add 1+hp to it, then you can just heal it ( no rivive needed) also do use ever battle the gyms together? (at the same time) much much faster.
Yesterday I saw a man take down a level 10 Mystic gym with his three devices. I didn't want to train it up because I was just amazed on how easily he took it down by himself.
Luis Acosta lol what a loser. three phones?
Luis Acosta he had three hands?
You wouldn't need 3 hands, only takes one finger to fight per phone
i have 2 phones, and all dragonites with dragon breathe make it so easy
how many people can battle in the gym at the same time?
Yay you finally made the video! I've asked for this a few times, I've tried to figure it out just by looking at the attack stats and defense along with possible move ranking. Thank you for making the video and covering the topic!
I find Wigglytuff to be incredibily good. I have difficulties fighting against Lapras because my Jolteons and Raichus have low CP and die immediately. Then I used my Wigglytuff, thought I already lost the battle, but it killed the Lapras amazingly fast :)
Awesome episode. Liked the breakdown. I would love to see a video of the best attacker against each type, with type advantage and the best move set.
If you are reading this, you can read.
yippie
O.O wow
:O
Well fuck, well played sir
goodperson656 hooked on phonics worked for me!
Watched this on my TV before coming to my laptop to find the resources. Disappointed that you didn't have your own cheat sheet here. Would love to see you put out some of your own cheat sheets and resources for download and quick reference while we're out hunting. Something that INCLUDES your clarifications, etc. Keep it up!
Please do a video of Best defenders for each movetype
just use your highest cp Pokemon. it doesn't matters which Type you use for defending, they will be beaten anyway
cevoorn from the guy saying " it doesn't matters" I would say it does matter
Powering up a Pokémon gives it higher defense stat?? Mind blown. I thought stats were static.
A video about what actually happens when you power up a Pokémon would be so awesome!!
Powering it up increases it's level. Thats why all it's stats go up, not just defence.
The base stats (which indeed are static for each "race" of pokemon) are basically a sacling factor for the pokemon how high his stats are on each individual level compared to other pokemon on the same level.
Icewolfnector .. That sounds cool. Read up on it on TheSilphRoad. Seems they figured out that level does affect the stats. Just not easy to see since a lvl 40 Pokémon isn't even twice as high as a lvl 9 Pokemon.
I think in this meta it's not worth powering up those...
Just use the overpowered eeveelutions, dragonites, arcanines, exxegutors, lapras and snorlaxes and your fine.
IbexPvP - Pokémon GO but these are more overpowered
IbexPvP - Pokémon GO He likes to use different pokemon because its boring when you use the same pokemon every time, he wants a variety of different ones
For gym defense those are ideal, but for offense and training not always
from my experience as a professional Pokemon go player(ex hacker). i would take down any gym with dragonites only, and i would only power up dragonites and snorlax(only for holding gyms). vaporeons/arcanines at 2k arnt worth powering up if you evolve eevee, and growlithe at 800-1k cp btw im level 31/32/31/28
also if you want to have fun, i recommend powering up the starters final evolution if they have the best attacking move sets with 80%+ iv.
Had to share with you, I just took a gym that had four SNORLAX in it. This was a thrill for me. Love your videos and the great tips you give. Thanks so much. Go TEAM INSTINCT!!
Wow them coins!
can u pls sub to me, ill sub back
sub me i will sub u
he probably spent money on them
He definitely did. He's said that 30 was the highest defender bonus he ever got, and if he'd gotten that every day since the game's been out he still wouldn't have that many coins.
Dear Trainer Tips,
Hey Nick!
I just have a suggestion about the "Gym dominance" ( I have yet to find a clever name for the gym problem where you see nothing but level 10 gyms scattered with very powerful Pokemon, which makes it both difficult for opposing teams and friendly teams to gain and take prestige)
This will answer your concern for the attackers having an advantage and at the same time give an advantage to friendly teammates.
I have run into problems such as the lapras problem you've had when attempting to build friendly prestige.
What if there was a simple time limit that Pokemon could hold a spot in the gym?
-an example would be every time a Pokemon is placed in the gym there would be an either a 12 or 24 hour expiration.
Basically giving a chance for other players to take a turn having a spot!
What if there was a time limit for gyms on a larger scale?
-perhaps everyday, a gym would simply clear all Pokemon completely, (an example, would be everyday at 9:00am, and this would EXPOSE hackers and deal with then at the same time so even they have to wake up and grind on the game as well, and will allow niantic to monitor which users are frequenting the same gyms everyday) leaving the gyms open for people to go back out and to play competitive once more! Of course, if you wanted to wait for gyms to go down before going out, you can totally do that or you can still battle existing gyms to get more experience, which benefits those that want to level up in the game!
This opens up for even the simplest players and allows a refresh for new gyms to at least attempt to take a gym and earn in game currency of course, and allows ONE USER TO PlAY THE GAME AND STILL HAVE THE ABILITY TO HELL HIS/HER TEAM.
Thank you for taking the time out of your busy day to read this message.
Your subscriber,
Chaz
(OPEN TO OTHERS SUGGESTIONS AS WELL, AND ALSO WHAT COULD BE THE FLAWS OF THIS SYSTEM?)
That took quite some time, will you lend me a sub pls!ill sub back
Nick, what happened to you powerbanks?
Devan Waldock I was thinking the same...I actually bought the RavPower one I saw in his earlier video and I'm loving it.
Matt Forrest I ended up getting Tylt Energi Backpack + Battery since i needed a backpack and a power bank to charge all my different gadgets and my phone. It has served me well especially with the battery case i have on my phone. I can go 3 days without having to plug into a wall. Its pretty awesome.

hey Nick, really enjoyed this episode! it was a great idea showing all those best typed Pokémon and also seeing you power some of them up. thanks for the video!
@fairy type: what about vileplume with moonblast, I got ?blessed? with this moveset: razor leaf - moonblast on a 1600cp vileplume
Moonblast is actually the worst charge move a Vileplume can have.
i know xD
Mine has Acid/Solar Beam which I think is the second best moveset, the best one being Razor Leaf/Solar Beam
Jarmo Habraken what was the secret package he said like a week ago?!
when battling gyms I think it's best to not let you're pokemon faint if you can help it in order to conserve your revives. switch out when they get red then quit before the last. You'll get less points but you'll be able to fight more because you're splitting the cost of fighting between max, hype, and super potions as well as revives.
Nick when are you going to evolve all the starter Pokemon ?
thanks for getting to the point of the video first then bullshit later, it helps and makes me want to watch your videos when you get to it faster :)
Anyone else sick of seeing the same 7 Pokemon in gyms? Snorlax, Lapras, Arcanine, Exeggutor, Vaporeon, Flareon, and Dragonite? And sometimes Vileplume, Victreebel, Charizard, Blastoise, Venusaur or Aerodactyl? I wanna see more variety. Pokemon like Machamp, Gengar, and Alakazam are way too weak for the Pokemon they are in the real Pokemon games. In the real Pokemon world, the champions and gym leaders always had more Pokemon. If there was an Elite Four in Pkmn GO they'd all just have Dragonite and Snorlax and it would be as boring as gym battles in Pkmn Go are. We need more potential in Pokemon like Raichu, Dewgong, Cloyster, Weezing, Porygon, Omastar, Kabutops, Rhydon, etc. to make the game more interesting. And when are the legendaries going to come out? Let's admit it: unless they ban legends from gyms like the real games, all we'll see in Gyms are the legendary birds and Mewtwo once they come out
CubexGaming same sentiments man, but unfortunately for my part, I needed the coins so I have no choice but to put my Snorlax and Dragonites for it to last longer while taking down other gyms. I would love seeing the likes of Rapidash or Sandslash atop gyms, they look so majestic compared to the lazy looking egxecutor.
CubexGaming i seeotyer but i basiclly live in a boarder line rual area so people tent to play less and be more random but when im in other places with more people i totally agree.
CubexGaming Totally feel you here man! I live in Philly and it's hardly diverse - even here. My original goal when I started Pokémon Go was to troll people with powerful bug Pokémon at gyms but, as it turns out, that's impossible lol. We need more flexibility in our Pokémon and the ability to play more strategically.
Flareon? LOL
CubexGaming Agree completely
Here's an Idea
You can't have multiple species of 1 Pokémon in a gym!
Yeah it wouldn't be the most helpful because majority of the 10 would be the same old we always see but it might encourage some diversity a little bkt
Is it bad, or sad, that the intro music to these daily updates is soothing to me after a long day?
last time i was this early chance had yellow crocs
You may crash their website's server but every time i try to log on, it takes around a solid 45 seconds to load. If I move the map, it takes around 2 or 3 minutes to load any points on it. Still a helpful tool and well worth the wait!!
Mistake ALERT!(@7:40) Parasect has bug bite and x scissor not bug buzz
Like so he can see this
Hi Nick, this is how I power up my pokemon. Attack first, then they faint with zero blood. Then power up them with star dust. In this way, their blood is now 1/X, then I can use the potion, or hyper potion to save my revive. :). I like to use Parasect to beat Slowbro than Exeggcutor.
No love for Butterfree? I thought it was going to make the top Bug attackers with Bug Bite and Bug Buzz.
Hector Flores u suck
Pigg Keys you suck, you uncultured swine.
Hector Flores butterfree is mah fave bug type
Q&A How are auto-fill Pokémon picked for gym battles?
What causes the error when you battle a gym, then kicks you out for no apparent reason.
Nice question. I believe its because someone else is battling the gyms team. In other words, someone is training the gym. Also, can you help me get to 100 subscribers! Ill sub back
I believe it's caused because the data in your phone is different from the data that is stored in the servers.
For example I'm from team valor, today I beat a mystic gym, then I put my own pokemon and trained it once, but before the training was over, someone from mystic took it back. After that, my phone tried to increase the gym's prestige, but the server can't accept it because it is now a mystic gym. So, I think the phone keeps trying to send that information, but the server thinks it's invalid.
I would also like to know more about this bug, because it sometimes makes me lose more than 10 coins (getting out of range doesn't work for me :( )
Where powering up has really been beneficial to me is something extra to do with the game when I'm at home or not catching pokemon. I started really focusing on a set of pokemon at level 24, and have been working to get them to max level before my cap increases. Star Dust is like any currency in a game. You only benefit from spending it!
It's sad to see ur own gym going down right after putting so much effort to beat the freaking lvl 9 or 10
@Trainer Tips, you can save revives by powering up fainted pokemon. If they gain 1 or 2 hp from the power up you can just use potions to restore their health.
Yay! I have a legacy omastar. :D
Lavinett I've only seen 1 omanyte period. Lucky :/
yeah well i... i... ... have a legacy diglet :/
I have a legacy pidgeot
Koaland 1044 I think
Lavinett Cool :)
In a pinch,Powering up a Pokemon will revive it if it gains an hp. Also max revives at level 30 help out a lot by giving you 2 possible revive drop possibilities from poke stops
Where's my Team Instinct at
Present!

TrollZilla what was the secret package he said like a week ago?!
TrollZilla right here boys
TrollZilla sup boiii
I really hate the full ads. Glad it bought you a new car.
Having said that, I love both Trainer Tips and The Silph Road.
Am I the only one who doesn't want trading? I feel like within a week everyone will have everything and the game will be pointless.
game is already pointless I can't even play because my phone is jailbroken lol when I don't even cheat for Pokémon go
I just pray it isn't like the GTS from the main games, cause it'll be flooded with trolls that are gonna ask for Mewtwo for their Pidgey......
I completely agree. And it would also favor people with money even more than it is now.

I'd like trading , but not right now the servers need to be upgraded so they can support trading and other features coming out if they keep adding feature after feature like people want it won't be playable at all. Now with trading. How I believe they will bring it in is this , by matching up the cp of both of the Pokemon or trading a Pokemon that has a similar cp of the Pokemon that is being traded to you
This was one of the best eppisodes ive seen in a bit... really enjoyable!!!!
I have over 100 revives, potions drop at low rates for me

Hey Nick, what do you think of this idea:
In many places that I go to, most gyms are level 10. As a solo player, it is near impossible to take down these gyms let alone defend them. So, what if every 2 weeks or so gyms are reset so they are free for all again? This would make the game so much more interesting.
Nidoking isn't not a bug type
VENTRO LAN it's just able to learn Bug type moves.
it's a list of pokemon that deal the most damage using one specific type move types
VENTRO LAN "isn't not"?
4User0name8 the metagame is dead now
Shak Pherze what? I was correcting his grammar lol
REVIVES: In a gym battle you can always switch to the next pokemon when a pokemon is about to faint. When your 6th pokemon is about to faint, simple run away. That way you won't need revives. If a pokemon did faint you can power them up, that way they will slightely heal, because their HP increases and you also won't need revives. I'm sure Nick already knows this, but perhaps some of you didnt
16:59 cassie takes a dump
REMOVED aka "the Asian squat" 😆
WTF
Best episode ever. You just schooled an ECE PhD here, professor:)
Why no Charizard?!!! I really wanted charizard to be a hero in the game. I mean, his collegues like blastoise and venusaur are their in the list of 'useful pokemons'.
because Niantic didn't include Speed in the base stats of the Pokemon
TheRising Karma Charizard with wing attack and either fireblast or flamethrower is really powerful. My Charizard can solo 3 exeggutors and still survive.
They did include it, but its sum is almost non existent
Overrated
True. My poor 100% iv charizard
I evolved a sandslash today with the move set you've been wanting and I named him Nick. Just letting you know I'm cheering for you!
I have a big shortage in Potions rather than revives :
Both are in short supply these days!
SwayBack it definitely takes an impact when you wanna fight gyms a lot :/
oh definitely, especially for us rural players. I drove to the closest city to stock up and came back with like 200 Pokeball's and like 40 potions and like 20 revives, it didn't last long before all gone. so in the next couple of days another trip back to the city.
Not me, it's potions all over...
Rainy Jane wow lucky you i got pokeballs coming out of my ears and very little potions and revives
Nick, did some experimenting with incense runs over 30 miles per hour. Go Plus does detect the spawn by vibrating. You can also hit the button to attempt the catch, but it will never show anything onscreen. No messages, no line, no spawn, but they are still there!
I don't get how charizard isn't a dragon lol it doesnt make sense at all
Elijah Sfeir it's a flying fire lizard. simple
Elijah Sfeir Well, it's been like that for 20 years. It's a Fire/Dragon when it Mega Evolves into Mega Charizard X.
Except it is. Dragons and dragon type are not the same thing. Even it's egg group is Dragon. It's a fire-breathing reptilian beast with wings. It's a Dragon.
Most helpful video to date! Thanks so much for going over these more in depth!
i'm a simple hate symbol, I see Nick , I upvote
I don't think you'll be so sour about using a normal type moveset once you use a Pound + Hyber Beam Wigglytuff a few times. It is by far the most versatile gym trainer and if powered up will slice through multiple high CP top tier Pokemon currently in gyms like butter.
Whoever is reading this, I hope you have a great day! :)
I don't even play Pokemon Go (nor do I plan to), but I am somehow entertained by your videos. I wonder if there's something wrong with me lol
Question regarding defenders vs attackers moveset: Let's say you have an Arcanine defending a gym. It is likely that someone will attack with a water type pokemon. Thus, would it be more effective for the defending Arcanine to have fire attacks, which are weak against water, OR would a move effective moveset be bite and bulldoze?
This video is so helpful. I shared it with the crew and learned a lot. Thank you
Lickitung can learn Lick, that is a ghost type move. and Seadra and Lapras can have dragon moves. So while your right that their is only one ghost and dragon family, other pokemon can learn ghost and dragon moves and while they would not get STAB they should still be in your list.
Thanks for your time making these videos. Wanted to mention that your audio seems to be cutting out sometimes of late. Don't know if it's a problem you're aware of.
Nick, nick rhymes with trick, trick is what magicians use, magicians are like wizards, wizards use potions, potions can be found in pokestops, pokestops are in Pokemon go. PROOF NICK WAS DESTINED TO BE A POKEMON GO TH-camR!
trainer tips #1 pokemon go channel
It is cool to see you powering up your pokemons!
hey nick! when you mentioned poison pokemon, you had weezing listed 2nd but forgot to mention this is a legacy moveset (his only fast attack is tackle now). also, just a comment about your video creation process: when you talk about pokemon movesets i noticed you do hand motions to coincide talking about each pokemon's fast and charge attack which is great but you go from right to left (audience perspective) when you do it, which is backwards from how we typically read. just a small thing but thought it might improve your videos in the future.keep up the great work man!
Thanks for your honesty Nick!
I just powered up some of my best attackers too, only those with 95% IVs or better with perfect movesets. I pumped up Dragonite, Arcanine, Gyarados, Vaporeon, Sandslash, Lapras, Poliwrath, Ninetails, Cloyster, and Golem. Powering stuff from level 20 (hatching max level) to 30 is about a 20% power increase and worth the investment for good Pokémon.
there are some rumors that egg tracking is worse after the latest update. counts less..less..could you test it?
love your videos!
i love the video. I think i will watch this more often when looking for the best pokemon/moves.
Q&A Question:
Which pokemon are better to powerup. Attackers or Defenders?
My favorite part of your videos is the part when you do the battles with the time sped up.... i look forward to the music every time. Gets me so hyped to fight gyms lol
another sick episode!! That was a lot of helpful info. I just used up some stardust too and after I did...I kinda felt like when you leave vegas after losing money but you kinda had a good time but still you don't feel like you got your money's worth....
Keep up the great work! Come on up to the 818 soon Nick!!!
This is the video I was waiting for you to do Nick!
A big thing to keep in mind is CP.. Cloyster is the biggest ice attacker.. but if you have a Lapras with a shitload more CP since Cloyster doesn't have very high CP.. then you're going to do more damage with the one that has much higher CP even if on paper it's not the biggest ice attacker stat wise. Also I'm ignoring the defence and stamina of Lapras for this example.
Cool episode Nick. You're the best.
Hey! What happened to the external batteries the other guy gave to you? xD
This might just be me, but my biggest problem in pokemon go atm is lack of resources for gyms. Because no one wants to go out catching anymore, gyms are the main thing left to do, and taking down one level 10 gym drains most of my potions and revives each time.
I know I am probably being lazy by not going out to stock up, but maybe they could fix this problem and help out regional players by upping the drops on pokestops, but only sometimes..
Just a thought.
+Trainer Tips Now that niantic has removed Pokemon from the sightings list if you go over 30 mph, will the incense trick work whenever you're driving? also have you ever encountered another trainer who has multiple Pokemon go accounts who deliberately puts weak Pokemon in your team's gyms in order to make it weak and hard to train? what's the best way to handle this?
Thanks Nick. Perfect timing. I just evolved some new ones and figuring out my next step for who I would like and need. I play everyday, but driving 7 days a week is hurting my time to experiment and enjoy. the game. You've helped again!! Now to battle 😈💣
Can you do a video of tips on how to manage your items? what would be the ideal number of items to have for people that battle a lot of gyms but also catch a lot of pokemon?
LOVED this episode! please do more like this!
Hey bud, first time commenting. Love your videos, no click bait, and all very factual. I'm not having as much of an issue with revives as much as all potions really. it takes a few hours of running through pokestops and deleting regular poke balls to get enough to have ample potions for fighting. I can spend 1 hour and have 400 regular poke balls easily. this needs to be fixed. I think Niantic should impliment a 'smart' feature that detects what you need the most and at least give you these items more commonly. Take care.
Wigglytuff is by far my most used and effective gym attackers. My 1529 CP wiggly with pound+play rough takes out some of the most common defenders (with just under 2k CPs) and my 1869 WT can take out a 2k+ Dragonite with ease. Basically Wiggly is super good against everything except Snoralax.
This is the most useful Pokemon Go vid I've seen
For water type isn't the Poliwrarth With bubble and hydropump. the best Pokémon ?
For Dragon type, where does the Legacy Gyarados with Dragon Breath and Dragon Pulse fit on the list? This is the only good legacy I got before the switch.
Small correction on bug moves: Parasect quick move should be Bug Bite
