PVE Offensive Moves Explanation

Counter does decent damage and is constructive against targets such as Tyranitar and Snorlax.
Tackle is worse than Counter in a vacuum, but also lacks whatever sort of blazon reward.
Mud Slap is the obvious choice for STAB and Ground-type coverage.
Charm doesn't have much use on Donphan, but at to the lowest degree pairs with Play Rough
Earthquake has STAB and shares some advantageous type matchups with Counter.
Play Rough has niche uses and slightly outpaces Earthquake when both are effective.
Heavy Slam serves a limited purpose on offense due to low power and lack of STAB.
Body Slamlacks STAB and can't be Super Constructive against anything.

PVE Defensive Moves Explanation

Charm hits the hardest on defense, and can nail Dragon-type attackers.
Mud Slap benefits from STAB, merely doesn't offer anything for coverage.
Tackle is a suboptimal fast move; Counter has amend defensive DPS.
Play Rough is the clear winner over Heavy Slam due to the onetime's extra power, amend typing, and earlier harm window.
Body Slamcan be used frequently as a iii-bar move, making it a adept choice for defense.
Earthquake is predictable due to its 1 bar nature and easy to dodge.

PVE Overview

Donphan is a solid Pokemon that WAS let down by an bad-mannered movepool. It was granted a Footing-type fast move, Mud Slap, in 2019. With information technology, it becomes a decent selection for Ground-type damage. Nonetheless, Ground-blazon has a very minor niche for attacking and compared to other types of moves, it lacks power.

On defense force, Donphan lacks double weaknesses and boasts solid all-around stats, merely it'south nothing special compared to truly practiced defenders.

PvP Moveset Explanation

Counter + Body Slam and Play Rough or Heavy Slam or Earthquake

Counter is i of the all-time fast moves in the game and has the all-time overall performance.

The addition of Body Slam following the GBL Season 10 update is an comeback for Donphan, enabling it to access a decent Charged Move without consuming a large amount of energy.Play Crude is run to handle Dragon-types (and have great neutral damage). Heavy Slam is cheaper and effective for shield baits, but doesn't provide meaningful coverage. Earthquake is more useful in the higher leagues, being harder-hit, and is particularly important in Main to give a chance against Dialga.

Charm + Body Slam and Earthquake

Amuse lets Donphan fulfill a more niche function, and sports extremely high damage output at the price of very bad energy gains. Body Slam is needed for this moveset due to its lower energy toll, as poor free energy generation makes it difficult to access Donphan'southward accuse moves. Earthquake offers broad coverage backed past STAB.

PvP Rating Explanation

Neat League: two / v

Donphan holds an interesting niche as one of the few not-Fighting-type Pokémon to learn Counter. Nevertheless, its stat-weighting and poor meta matchups (Azumarill, Altaria, Medicham) brand it a poor selection in near cases. Ground-typing is somewhat vulnerable against mutual typings, and Donphan lacks counter-coverage moves to fight back. A lack of a low energy charge move besides limits Donphan's ability to bait and pressure shields, making it slower compared to other picks.

Ultra League: 3 / 5

Donphan is stronger in Ultra than Not bad, though it'south still not the best. Play Rough is not enough to save it from a loss confronting Giratina. Access to Charm enables very narrow wins against either Giratina, but loses almost everything else.

Principal League: 0 / five

Dialga remains height threats in Master, which makes Donphan as a Counter user interesting. However, there are better choices. With a max CP of 3013, Donphan doesn't have the stats that many legendary Pokemon boast.
