Blissey is Pokemon Go’s ultimate defender, so if you want to be unbeatable you should take advantage of the upcoming Community Day featuring Chansey. If you happen to catch one with outstanding IVs and evolve it into Blissey, here’s the best moveset you can pick for it.
Any Pokemon Go fan needs to be up to date with the top attackers and defenders in the game so they can dominate Battle Leagues, Gyms, Raids, and all the different types of encounters.
Due to its ridiculous amount of Stamina, Blissey is the tankiest Pokemon available and sits comfortably at the top of the best defenders tier list, so evolving the perfect Chansey into it is the right strategy for any player.
Luckily for them, on Sunday, February 4, 2024 from 2 pm until 5 pm local time, they’ll have the chance to catch as many Chanseys as they want, as it will be the headliner of the Community Day. More so, those who evolve it during the event will get a Blissey with the Electric-type Charged Attack: Wild Charge.
Blissey general stats in Pokemon Go
This sole Normal-type Pokemon has an attack-based stat spread of 129 (ATK), 169 (DEF), and 496 (STAT), and can reach a max CP value of 2757 in Pokemon Go, which can be boosted by Windy, Cloudy, and Partly Cloudy weather.
Thanks to its type, Blissey is only vulnerable to Fighting-type moves, which deal double damage. However, this Pokemon’s main quality -aside from its useful resistance to the elusive Ghost-type creatures- is its massive amount of Stamina.
Best moveset for Blissey
The best moveset available for Blissey in Pokemon Go consists of Pound as a Fast Move and Dazzling Gleam as a Charged Move.
While many players focus on their Pokemon’s offensive moves, as the ultimate defender and a Pokemon with a very poor ATK stat, you need to use Blissey’s best defensive moveset. And though it does not benefit from the Same Type Attack Bonus (STAB) entirely, it deals super effective damage against most of its counters.
All moves Blissey can learn
This strong and innocent-looking creature has two Fast Moves and three Charged Moves available in its pool.
Blissey Fast Moves
- Pound (Normal/STAB)
- Zen Headbutt (Psychic)
Blissey Charged Moves
- Hyper Beam (Normal/STAB)
- Dazzling Gleam (Fairy)
- Psychic (Psychic)
Is Blissey any good in Pokemon Go?
Due to its defensive characteristics, Blissey is not a good Pokemon to take into any kind of battle, as its ATK stat is really low and its offensive moves lack strength, versatility, and speed.
However, if you’re looking for a Pokemon to defend a Gym, this is the perfect creature for the job. As the tankiest ‘creature ‘mon in the game, it will take players a very long time to deplete its enormous amount of Stamina and will probably be outrun by the timer first.
Besides, it has great coverage moves against its only weakness, so it’s even harder to deal damage to it.
