Poltergeist — Pokémon that hit hardest with it

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 14 of 14 that can learn it (Shadow and Mega included) · ★ = legacy (Elite TM / event-exclusive)

How are these numbers calculated?

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.
