• Confusion (Psychic/STAB)

Mega Slowbro Charged Moves

Pokemon Go Mega Slowbro best PvP moveset

Mega Slowbro’s best moveset for PvP content is Confusion as the Fast Move and Psychic and Surf as the Charged Moves.

Out of Mega Slowbro’s two Fast Move options, both are viable, but Confusion’s damage and energy generation in combination with Psychic ultimately makes it better than Water Gun.

As mentioned above, Psychic should be Mega Slowbro’s go-to Charged Move thanks to its damage and energy costs, which are similar to those of its other moves. Mega Slowbro’s second Charged Move should go to Surf.

Of course, players can only take Mega Pokemon into certain special event cups, but when those special events come around, this is the moveset to use.

Pokemon Go Mega Slowbro best Raid moveset

Mega Slowbro’s best moveset for Raid content is Confusion as the Fast Move and Psychic and Surf as the Charged Moves.

In Raid content, it’s generally a good idea to keep Pokemon to one type, and Confusion and Psychic provide Mega Slowbro with the best DPS. Adding Surf as the second Charged Move gives Slowbro some handy type coverage with STAB.
