Analysis
The original Water Type titan, Kyogre once ruled its meta with an iron fist.... fin. It was a must-have for virtually anyone raiding, and Raiding was virtually the only game-mode at the time. This thing was one of the apex Pokemon of its time, sporting virtually no real competition and fearing no major competition in the future... save itself. Nowadays, Kyogre is still good, but it's been out-classed.... by itself.
Offense
- Waterfall and Origin Pulse is, without a doubt, Kyogre's best moveset.
- Surf and Hydro Pump fall behind, while Blizzard and Thunder are underwhelming on Kyogre.
Waterfall is the Fast Move of choice for Kyogre... because it's literally the only option that Kyogre has available. Regardless, this is an oppressive move with very high damage output and energy generation, giving Kyogre an oppressive presence on the field. To add more Water power, Origin Pulse is a must-have most of the time thanks to its tremendous raw power. Avalanche backs this up with its relatively low energy cost, high DPE, and useful coverage that threatens a plethora of Dragons that roam the Master League. Thunder can also work for coverage, but it tends to be a bit less useful in the Master League. Blizzard has a lower DPE than Avalanche for a higher energy cost with the only advantage being that it can drop more raw damage at once... though this is not worth it 99% of the time.
Kyogre is ineligible in Great League. However, a Shadow Kyogre obtained through Giovanni is usable in here, though its performance leaves a lot to be desired.
