The Water/Fairy-type Primarina is the graceful final form of the Sun & Moon starter Popplio, but what moves does it learn in Pokemon Go, and which ones are the best for PvP and Raids?

Primarina is the final evolution of the Water-type Alolan starter Popplio introduced in Pokemon Sun & Moon. For players wanting to catch Popplio in Pokemon Go, Niantic’s recent announcement has exciting news for them.

The Pokemon Go developer has revealed that Popplio will headline the August 2024 Community Day on August 31, 2024. This means trainers will have a better chance of encountering Popplio in the wild and from Research tasks.

Considering collecting Popplio Candy will be easier during the Pokemon’s Community Day, evolving Brionne into Primarina will be easier. Here’s what you need to know about Primarina’s best moveset in Pokemon Go.
