Offensive Moves Explanation
- Shadow Claw, one of the best fast moves in Pokemon GO, is strictly superior to Hex.
- Shadow Ball is Banette’s superior charge move, having better damage, coverage, and STAB compared to Dazzling Gleam.
- Thunder offers no offensive utility.
Defensive Moves Explanation
- Hex is slightly better than Shadow Claw, offering slightly higher damage and more energy gain.
- Dazzling Gleam is arguably superior to Shadow Ball on defense, better at hitting some common attackers.
- Thunder hits early, but is weak and won't be used before Banette faints.
Rating Explanation
Banette is a strictly worse version of Gengar, even without the Poison-typing that burdens Gengar with inconvenient weaknesses. However, it possesses a good Atk stat and one of the best movesets in the game in Shadow Claw + Shadow Ball, making it a viable raid attacker. Due to its extreme frailty, Banette is best used in experienced hands adept at dodging charge moves.
