Our recent List of the Best Gym Defender Pokemons listed out the best Pokemons with particular movesets that can be the best placements in a Gym for Defending it.

In a similar pattern, here’s the list of the best Gym Attacker Pokemons that will help you to easily defeat and knock out Pokemons from your enemy teams.

In the table below, the Moveset is the Basic and Special move combination (separated by a comma) laying out all the possible combinations of particular species of a Pokemon that makes up the respective Attacking power. The higher the Attacking power (in percent), the more powerful the Pokemon’s move combinations are, and the more likely you should be to use and knock down opposing gyms. Thanks to /u/Qmike for putting this data together.
