THE Definitive Pokemon Go Attacker Tier List

So it’s 2016; you wake up, put on your trainers, and grab your phone to hunt all the wild Pokemon lurking in the surroundings. You think about how your childhood dreams of “gotta catch ’em all” becomes a reality as you stroll past a block. As you think about all that, you encounter a wild Pidgey; to catch it, you throw your Poke Ball, imitating your best Ash action from the anime. As you continue your journey, you can hear all those sound effects from the old GBA games in your head. All this is possible thanks to Pokemon Go. Keeping in mind the dedicated fanbase of the game, we decided to construct this Pokemon Go Attacker Tier List.

Developed by Niantic, Inc, Pokemon Go gained much attention in its first week of release. With more than one billion downloads, this Game took over the internet. It became the Number 1 trending game. Fast forward 6 years to 2022, and the famous mobile Game still has up to 80 million active players around the globe. With new updates every month, this Game is still far from dead.

Where to Get Pokemon Go?

I’m sure many of you will be familiar with the Game, but for those new to the Game and wondering what to do and where to begin, don’t worry, as we’ve got you covered. Pokemon Go is available on both Google Play and App Store. It’s a free-to-download game that requires an internet connection to be played. Although the Game is free of cost, you can make in-game purchases to get many helpful tools and rare items.

How to Play Pokemon Go?

The Game requires the players to walk around places in real life where they can find hidden wild Pokemon. Your phone vibrates, indicating that your area has a Pokemon lurking somewhere. From here on, it’s the old-school method of throwing Poke Balls at it to capture it, train it, and use it to fight other trainers. Those trainers are other online players waiting to be challenged. You can even add other trainers as friends and battle them whenever you are up for a duel. For further explanation, check out this link.

A Brief Introduction to a Tier List

A Tier List is a simple method to put any item(s) from a particular group keeping their ability, popularity, and overall status in mind. They are distributed into 5 different tiers: S, A, B, C, and D. The S Tier is the stand-out Tier. While the rest follows in order from good to worst.

We will rank all the Attackers in this style from Pokemon Go in our Pokemon Go Attacker Tier List. Also, it is important to consider that the following Tier List is purely constructed on personal opinion. After trying out the Game ourselves, our observations have led us to the creation of the Tier List. A good number of readers might not agree with a few placements, which is fine as we all have different opinions and are entitled to them. With that being said, let’s get into the Tier List.

This Tier List aims to help the players familiarize themselves with the pocket monsters they’re hunting and get an idea of which is worth looking for and which to overlook. We will talk about all the attackers in the Game, which will be ranked from the best to the weakest in a shape of a tier list.

  • They have been ranked according to their base stats, strengths, rarity, and overall performance.

A Tier

A Tier of Pokemon Go Attackers Tier List
Good Attackers of Pokemon Go Attackers Tier List

The B Tier list of our Pokemon Go Attacker Tier will comprise those Pokemon considered strong. They have more than decent base powers, attacks, and move sets. This list includes some of the legendary Pokemon as well, but after noticing some flaws in their abilities, we believe they can’t quite make it to the S Tier, so they have to settle for a place in A Tier which doesn’t sound too bad, does it? Since there are so many big names in this Tier, they’re worthy of your time and precious Poke Balls.

Decent would be the right word to describe these Pokemon. They are well capable of putting up a good fight. Their stats and power, alongside their moves, are pretty good too. Most of these Pokemon from this Tier has the potential to be listed in the above Tier. Still, due to observing some defects in their abilities, we believe they are best suited for the B Tier in our Pokemon Go Attacker Tier.

C Tier

C Tier of Pokemon Go Attackers Tier List
Average Attackers of Pokemon Go Attackers Tier List

These Pokemon are not the type that will make you scream in excitement after an encounter. They don’t have any strong move sets or any special abilities. Their overall data is pretty average; we believe they are best suited for adding numbers to your team. They will struggle against other Pokemon listed in the above Tiers regarding combat. So if you are challenging a trainer, make sure they are not the primary weapon from your arsenal.
