PVE Offensive Moves Explanation

• Bubble pairs well with Water Pulse for Water type damage. 
• Wing Attack pairs well with Aerial Ace for Flying type damage. 
• Bullet Seed doesn't perform as well, TM this.
• Ice Beam can provide coverage in niche situations.

PVE Defensive Moves Explanation

• Bubble is Mantine's best defensive fast move with superior damage and energy gains. 
• Wing Attack and Bullet Seed don't perform as well as Bubble.
• Ice Beam has an early damage window and can provide a wide coverage.
• Aerial Ace costs the least amount of energy and is more likely to be used before Mantine faints. 
• Water Pulse has a longer damage window but can help cover Mantine's weakness to Rock types.

PvP Moveset Explanation

Wing Attack OR Bubble + Bubble Beam and Ice Beam

Mantine can go one of two directions, and both of them end with Bubble Beam and Ice Beam. Wing Attack deals more damage than Bubble, but has slightly less energy generation. On the whole you'll choose your fast move based on which coverage you'd rather have: Flying or Water. Bubble Beam's low damage output means it's best used to shield bait, which is especially beneficial because of the Attack debuff it applies to your opponent. Ice Beam is the secondary move of choice primarily because the rest are bad, and Ice has great offensive coverage!

PvP Rating Explanation

Great League: 3.5 / 5

Mantine is a bulky, bait-dependent mon that has an impressive amount of play against a lot of the metagame. What it can't beat, it can at least debuff on the way out, setting up your next Pokémon in an advantageous position. Of course, Mantine is a Flying-type, making it vulnerable to the ever-present anti-flyings in the format (hi, Bastiodon.) That said, it's definitely a mon that sees less play than it deserves, and while it's not the best thing in the format, it's worth playing!

Ultra League: 2 / 5

The Level 50 update sadly did not provide Mantine enough power to compete effectively in the Ultra League. Not only is it expensive, it's just not that great.

Master League: 0 / 5

Mantine doesn't perform well in Master League.
