Pokemon GO Terrakion Best Moveset
So, we now know what the best counters and weakness of Terrakion are in Pokemon GO, so now let’s cover the moveset. The most powerful Charged Attack this creature can have is definitely Sacred Sword (Fighting). You can use it along with any of the Quick Attacks Terrakion can have and get really good results. Ideally, you want to go with either Double Kick (Fighting) or Smack Down (Rock), but Zen Headbutt (Psychic) works just fine.
Now, Sacred Sword is an Elite TM. If you don’t have access to it, opt for the Rock Slide (Rock) Charged Attack instead. Combine it with either Smack Down or Double Kick. The other two possible Charged Attacks are Close Combat (Fighting) and Earthquake (Ground), which aren’t as good for Terrakion.
