Water Pulse Vap

Hello guys,
I've got a 43/45 Vap with Water Pulse, and now I wonder if after the changes Water Pulse is closer to Hydro Pump in terms of attacking gyms.(Maybe there was such topic already, sorry then ;/)

At this point, it's Hydro Pump far ahead for attacking gyms. Aqua Tail is the best for defense.

These are basically the two movesets you want with Vape right now.

Not really crap but more versatile as its a two bar move so its still good for both attack and def. Also since its two bars, its easier to dodge than with hydro pump. So ur vape is definetely good

Oh boi. Thanks for those words, I was about to transfer my Vap to prof. Anyway I don't get why HP would be far ahead at DPS since WP has 70 dmg with 2 bars when HP has 130 dmg, I guess it takes longer to use WP 2 times but does it really do that much difference?

AT is pretty strong for attacking as well since you can use it between defender attacks and still doge. My ranking is

Attack:
HP & AT A
WP B

Deffense:
AT A
WP & HP B

Water Pulse is crap tbh, it's damage window is too long.
So it's easier to dodge than HP and AT. Even HP became arguably the best defense and attack moveset for vapes since gen 2 update.

A high IV Vap will never be crap (unless niantic changes its move again but not untill now) Water Pulse now feels more like Aqua Tail used to, versatile.
