Trainer Tips

Pyroar is a Fire/Normal-type Pokemon with a stat total of 570. With its high Attack stat (221), Pyroar is best suited for offensive roles in both raids and PvP.

Watch out for Fighting, Ground, Rock, Water-type moves when using Pyroar. These types deal super effective damage that can cut into Pyroar's performance.

Pyroar's moves get a damage boost in Sunny and Partly Cloudy weather. Take advantage of weather conditions to maximize your DPS in raids and gym battles.

Verdict

Niche PvP Pick

With base stats of 221/149/200 and a max CP of 3,129, its stat distribution is more offense-oriented. Run Fire Fang with Overheat for best results. Consider building one if you enjoy using it, but there are stronger PvP options in this league.
