Pokémon GO: Arena angreifen – Die besten Angriffs-Pokémon

With these Pokémon, you have a good chance in an Arena attack in Pokémon GO. We show you the strongest Arena attackers and their best moves.

If you regularly take over Arenas in Pokémon GO, you may have noticed that some Pokémon are better suited for attacking than others. Just a few days ago, Niantic changed the CP values of many Pokémon. Due to the buffs and nerfs from these CP changes, there are now new Pokémon among the top Arena attackers. We show you the Pokémon best suited for taking over Arenas and which moves they should master.

Pokémon GO: The strongest Arena attackers

After the CP changes, research was done on which Pokémon are best suited as attackers for Arenas. This list from Gamepress shows which Pokémon were ranked the highest.

In the following list, we show you the Pokémon and their best moves from the different tiers.

These Pokémon are a good choice to power up with Stardust. They are particularly strong Pokémon that have advantages against the usual Arena defenders.
