I end up needing to edit the chart when looking at water types because of this. It would be nice if specific move combos per Pokemon could be excluded from the chart automatically. Charizard does the same thing with Ember/Blast Burn and Wing Attack/Blast Burn being unobtainable combos, but this is less of an issue with Fire Spin topping the charts anyway.

Feraligatr's Updated DPS/TDO Slightly Inaccurate?
With Feraligatr's new charge move, Hydro Cannon, his DPS moved up the charts as the #2 spot for water type. This is true, however, the comprehensive DPS chart states that the optimal moveset for Feraligatr is Water Gun and Hydro Cannon. With Water Gun being a Legacy move and Hydro Cannon being a Community Day exclusive move; This optimal set of moves cannot be obtainable. This makes Feraligatr still the 2nd best water attacker but much closer to Gyarados instead of rivaling Kyogre.

this is probably the only instance of a chart topping double legacy set thats impossible. Dragonbreath/Draco meteor dragonite wouldn't register (ive never seen it to my recollection, but I might not have been looking for it) notably as DB/OR, DT/OR and TD/DM are jst better movesets most would look at first and ignore the others.
I wonder if there is someway to have incompatible sets not show up, but that might take some time for gamepress staff to make applicable, for the time being, we could just remove water gun from out spreadsheets manually.
I have to questions about ferraligator I would love your input in.
His fast move is bite should I tm it to a water move for battling vs kyogre? I have to water move gyarados and a couple grass moves exegutors as well as a 2300 cp ice beam mewtwo.
I have a 2400 cp one should I power him up for the Ultra league or is he not meta relevant in pvp?
You should TM your Feraligatr's bite to waterfall, but you shouldn't use it to fight against Kyogre. Did you mean Groudon instead?
I've heard pretty good things about it in Ultra League PvP. Decent counter against Giratina though not the best. I wouldn't power it up for that reason but that's just me.
