Moveset analysis
In Great League it runs Peck and Brave Bird. In Ultra League it runs Peck and Brave Bird. PvP movesets favour energy generation and shield pressure over raw damage, which is why they often differ from the raid set.
The highest-damage fast move is Steel Wing (14 DPS); Feint Attack builds energy fastest (10 EPS). Air Cutter is an Elite TM move and cannot be taught with a regular Charged TM.

| Lv 20 → 40 | 135,000 | 15 | — |
Dodrio does not rank as a raid attacker, but it holds a Tier S spot at #6 in Great League. Build it to the league's CP cap rather than to a level, and unlock the second charged move before you invest further.
- Attack is its highest stat (218), so it hits harder than it survives — a glass-cannon raid slot rather than a gym defender.
- A second charged move costs 50,000 Dust and 50 Candy, and with 5 charged moves to pick from it is the single biggest PvP upgrade you can buy.
- Its moves get a damage boost in Partly Cloudy and Windy weather — worth timing raids around.
