Understanding move stats

Fast moves build the energy your charged move spends. The numbers below are PvE (raid and gym) values — GO Battle League uses a separate turn-based set of stats shown on each move page.

What PWR, EN, DUR, DPS, EPS and DPE mean
PWR
Base damage dealt per use, before type and stat multipliers.
EN
Energy generated by a fast move, or the energy a charged move costs to fire.
DUR
Animation time in seconds. You cannot dodge or attack during it.
DPS
Damage per second — power × 1000 / duration.
EPS
Energy per second on fast moves — energy × 1000 / duration. Often matters more than DPS, because the fast move’s job is to fuel the charged move.
DPE
Damage per energy on charged moves — power / energy cost. Above 1.5 is excellent.

FAQ

What is the best Grass fast move?

Razor Leaf has the highest raid DPS of any Grass fast move at 13.0 DPS and 7.0 EPS. If you need energy faster, Bullet Seed generates 13.0 energy per second.

What is the best Grass charged move?

Leaf Storm tops the DPS list at 52.0 DPS for 130 power. Drum Beating is the most energy-efficient with 3.48 damage per energy.

Do these numbers apply to GO Battle League?

No. The table shows PvE values used in raids and gyms. PvP runs on 0.5-second turns with its own power and energy values, and some charged moves also change attack or defence stats. Open a move to see both sets side by side.
