Pokemon Go Trevenant best PvP moveset

Trevenant’s best moveset for PvP consists of Shadow Claw as a Fast Move and Shadow Ball as a Charged Move.

Between both Fast Moves, Shadow Claw is the only one that benefits from STAB. Plus, it has a better damage output and can generate energy faster, allowing Trevenant to access its Charged Move sooner.

As for the Charged Move, you should go with Shadow Ball due to the typing having a superior coverage than the other two options. It is also the strongest move of them all and the energy cost is very low.

If you can afford a secondary Charged Move, pick Seed Bomb to get the STAB bonus and expand Tevenant’s coverage.

Pokemon Go Trevenant best Raid moveset

The best moveset for Trevenant in Raid battles is also Shadow Claw as a Fast Move and Shadow Ball as a Charged Move.

Sucker Punch is a really weak Fast Move, and it does not go well with Trevenant’s typing, so stick with Shadow Claw, as it has STAB and hits harder for even less energy.

For this case scenario, the smarter choice is to pair Shadow Claw with a move that shares the same typing, so go with Shadow Ball. This move does not only benefit from STAB but is also a cheap and powerful nuke.
