Ranked by DPS of the best moveset that includes this move. Same assumptions as the raid attacker tiers (Level 40, 15 IVs, target Defense 180, a boss weak to the Charged Move's type). These are base values without event buffs such as Mega Finale. Top 30 of 42 that can learn it (Shadow and Mega included) · ★ = legacy (Elite TM / event-exclusive)

Power, duration and energy are the Raid and Gym values from public game data (PokeMiners game master, as of 2026-10-08). Damage is floor(0.5 × power × Attack ÷ Defense × STAB 1.2 × effectiveness) + 1. Cycle DPS is the total damage of charging with the Fast Move and firing the Charged Move once, divided by the time it takes. Shadow Pokémon get 1.2× Attack. Real raids vary with the boss's type, moves and dodging, so treat these as values for comparing Pokémon.
