PVE Offensive Moves Explanation

  • Poison Jab and Gunk Shot make for the best moveset that Toxapex can use offensively.
  • Bite, Brine, and Sludge-Wave are sub-optimal.

PVE Defensive Moves Explanation

  • Poison Jab has higher base power and STAB, but Poison is a fairly widely resisted type that rarely does Super Effective damage.
  • Bite is weaker and generates energy a bit slower, but Dark offers counter-coverage as well as outstanding neutral coverage that keeps it about on a par with Poison Jab in practice.
  • Brine is Toxapex' only multi-bar charged move, making it the go-to on defense.
  • Gunk Shot is superior to Sludge Wave, but both are a bit iffy in general.

PVE Overview

Right off the bat, Toxapex is not the attacker that you're looking for. It's far too weak offensively to be worth considering, so please look elsewhere. On the other hand, it's pretty decent as a Gym Defender. It's not going to KO many attackers, and its Poison typing is a double-edged sword due to its resistance to a number of types including Fighting and weakness to Psychic and Ground, but it should generally act as a decent speed-bump that can sit alongside the plethora of Fighting-weak Pokemon that tend to litter Gym Defense.

PvP Moveset Explanation

Poison Jab + Brine and Sludge Wave

Poison Jab's strong DPT and EPT outclass Bite's, and gives Toxapex plenty of opportunity to farm enemies down.

Brine is Toxapex's only Water-type Attack and offers coverage against Steel- and Ground-type Pokemon, although it is not particularly strong. Sludge Wave is cheaper than Gunk Shot and sees more consistent use.

PvP Rating Explanation

Great League: 4 / 5

Toxapex boasts a massive stat product, rivaling that of Umbreon and making it an extremely tanky Pokemon. It is by far and away Azumarill's greatest nightmare, as it resists everything and can easily farm down with Poison Jab. Toxapex is very capable of leaving a dent in its counters as well, thanks to its bulk and Brine's coverage. However, Toxapex is not without flaws, as its heavy reliance on Poison-type damage combined with Brine's mediocre parameters can leave it with a lot of issues getting past the numerous Poison resists in this game. Dark-type Pokemon such as Sableye or Obstagoon can help overcome some of these issues, and they appreciate Toxapex's ability to prey on Fairy-type Pokemon.

Ultra League: 1 / 5

Unfortunately, Toxapex does not reach anywhere close to 2500 CP.

Master League: 0 / 5

In the main series, Toxapex's viability in the game's uppermost tiers comes its incredible supporting options and unrivaled sustain. None of these options are in Pokemon GO, forcing Toxapex to rely on stats to function. And unfortunately, Toxapex does not come anywhere near Master League viability. It even struggles to beat Play Rough + Close Combat Zacian.
