PVE Offensive Moves Explanation

  • Incinerate performs slightly better than Ember, though the two aren't very different. 
  • Rock Smash is a poor move. 
  • Overheat is the preferred charge move for its high power and STAB.
  • Like Groudon, Earthquake is on par with Solar Beam in neutral matchups.
  • Earth Power performs better than Earthquake, but doesn't really pair well with Camerupt's fast moves. 

PVE Defensive Moves Explanation

  • Incinerate is the best Fast Move in the game with its huge base power. 
  • Rock Smash is on par with Ember, but with better coverage.
  • Camerupt is too frail to use 1-bar charge moves on defense, but if it does get one off, Solar Beam will hurt its counters the most.
  • Earth Power is the only multi-bar option available to Camerupt, so that becomes its best move on gym defense. 

PVE Overview

Camerupt has good moves but is limited due to its poor stats. It looks bulky but it isn’t - in fact, it’s very glassy). Its dual typing, at the cost of introducing a double weakness to Water, offers no benefit. At the moment, a dex filler, it is.

PvP Moveset Explanation

Incinerate + Earth Power and Overheat or Solar Beam

Incinerate offers noticeably more energy than Ember, while being somewhat difficult to use with its long animation. Ember is much easier to use and deals slightly more damage by comparison. Rock Smash is pretty bad. 

Due to the relatively high energy costs of Camerupt's charge moves, Earth Power gets used the most and also benefits from STAB. Overheat ties for the cheapest energy cost, and is very powerful with STAB, but is difficult to use due to its self-debuff. Solar Beam could also be a secondary option to counter Camerupt's weaknesses, but it's very likely that our smokin hot camel will be washed away before it gets enough energy to use it. 

PvP Rating Explanation

Great League: 1 / 5

Camerupt ain't so hot in PvP unfortunately. An offensive stat distribution lowers its overall bulk, and its typing also invites the ubiquitous Water-types to come and wash it away. Another major setback for Camerupt is the lack of a good moveset, as all of Camerupt's charge moves demand a lot of energy to use, which its fast moves can't provide. If you're looking for a Ground and/or Fire-type candidate, it's probably best to look elsewhere. 

Ultra League: 1 / 5

Camerupt's only role is due to its Fire coverage, shutting down Steel-types and resisting Fairy-type attacks, with some struggles against Grass-types due to Camerupt's Ground-typing. Unfortunately a cumbersome moveset and poor bulk holds Camerupt back significantly, and other Fire-types would be more ideal for its role.

Master League: 0 / 5

Camerupt is mostly a dex filler, hopefully you realized that by now.
