Shadow Honchkrow really is a boss of a Pokemon. Its combined solid Attack stat and great movesets means it can come out near the top of the Dark and Flying Type metas alike. It has outstanding role compression and high power, making investing in this ravenous Pokemon a solid investment for many players.

  • Peck + Sky Attack is a great moveset that puts Shadow Honchkrow among the game's top Flying-type DPS options. Brave Bird is even stronger, but Honchkrow's low bulk makes it a bit riskier.
  • Snarl + Dark Pulse is a solid Dark-type attacking moveset.
  • Psychic has no offensive role for Shadow Honchkrow.

  • Dark Pulse, Psychic, and Sky Attack are all strong as 2 bar charged moves.
  • Brave Bird is hard to dodge, but Shadow Honchkrow doesn’t have the bulk to use it.
