Here’s a breakdown of how Aggron shakes out in Pokemon Go.
Aggron’s best moveset in Pokemon Go
Pokemon Go players should equip Aggron with Smack Down as its Fast Move, with Meteor Beam and Heavy Slam as Charged Moves.
Smack Down doesn’t have the highest Fast Move DPS or EPS per Pokebattler, but it does get the coveted STAB bonus.
Like with Smack Down, Meteor Beam is a Rock-type move that Aggron can get a STAB bonus off of. Heavy Slam, a Steel-type move, gives Aggron some variety.
