Wigglytuff strategy

Go for the offensive wigglytuff. i love mine.

The slight problem with a defensive wigglytuff is the low cp ceiling. when you pump up your 95% it might hit 1900 at level 30. There are plenty of better defenders that easily get over 2000 at level 30, meaning your wigglytuff won't be on top of the gym, and will fall out quicker.

But don't let the low cp fool you, it is a beast when attacking. with a little dodging (something the quick attack pound helps with immensely) my 1300 wigglytuff with pound/hypebeam take down 2000 snorlax.

Wiggly ftw.

I'd definitely invest in the offensive one. Wigglytuff is an alright defender, but not top tier. Pound / Hyper Beam is the best offensive moveset and second best defensive moveset, not far behind Pound / Play Rough. Wigglytuff is also decent against Dragonite.

I'm in a similar situation: I got a Pound/Hyperbeam Wiggly and I won't power it up anymore. It is such a beast at fast gym training that there's no point at increasing its CP.
I'm waiting for a feint/play rough to power up as a defender, better as a 10th pokemon to attach to a gym. It would be exposed but...I'd love to think about how hard my Wiggly hurted before giving up :D.
Beside to that I have to say that it's quite boring to see always the same pokemons in gyms...so I like the off-meta Wiggly choice.

Consider also that Jiggly is one of the most generous buddies, it drops tons of candies per km compared to other buddies.
