Golisopod

Golisopod is an interesting Pokemon in Pokemon Go, with a decent ATK stat that sets it not too far behind Scizor in terms of offensive performance. Unfortunately Bug typing is not very valuable, making this Pokemon mostly a Dex entry at this point. Probably the most notable aspect about Golisopod in Pokemon Go is its incredible Candy requirement to evolve from Wimpod. 

Best PvE Offensive Moveset

• Fury Cutter benefits from STAB and pairs with X-Scissor to fulfill a Bug-type attacker role.
• Waterfall is a strong Water-type move, and synergizes with Razor Shell to fulfill a Water attacker role
• Liquidation and especially Aqua Jet fall behind.
• Shadow Claw is a good move for Ghost-type Pokemon, not Golisopod. 
• Metal Claw should be TM'd away. 
• Aerial Ace doesn't have any significant use. 

Best PvE Defensive Moveset

• Waterfall is the best Fast Move for defense due to its high base power and damage against Rock-type attackers.
• Metal Claw has half the base power and lacks STAB, making it a major downgrade. 
• Shadow Claw doesn't do much better, but is less likely to be resisted by attackers. 
• Fury Cutter is very poor for defense. 
• Liquidation is useful on defense against Rock-type attackers. 
• Razor Shell is weaker, but harder to dodge.
• Aqua Jet is basically a worse Razor Shell.
• X-Scissor is ok with STAB, and relatively difficult to dodge. 
• Aerial Ace has a niche against players who don't like switching out their Fighting-type attackers. 

Shadow Claw is the preferred Fast Attack due to its excellent parameters and additional coverage. Fury Cutter is decent and receives STAB, but it doesn't provide extra coverage. Waterfall is another option if more Water-type damage is preferred, offering stronger STAB damage while sacrificing energy gains. Metal Claw has poor stats and its coverage is not very valuable. 

X-Scissor can be spammed frequently with its low energy cost, and benefits from STAB to deal respectable damage. Liquidation is a potent Water-type STAB attack and is Golisopod's primary weapon. Though Aerial Ace has mediocre DPE and does not benefit from STAB, it can be used to cover certain Pokemon that Golisopod's STABs don't particularly do well against, such as Virizion and Poliwrath. Razor Shell is Golisopod's Cheapest Charged Attack, but its low DPE makes it not worth using.
