Best moves for Jolteon in Pokémon Legends: Arceus

In Pokémon Legends: Arceus, moves determine your Pokémon’s potential in battle. Pokémon will naturally learn more powerful ones as it levels up, but you can also visit Zisu in Jubilife Village to have it learn others for a price. This is true for every Pokémon in the game, including Jolteon—one of Eevee’s many evolutionary forms.

Best moves for Jolteon

Jolteon is a very fast Pokémon with a high Sp. Attack stat. This means that it’s better off keeping special attacks over physical ones. Given that, below are the best moves it can learn.

• Thunderbolt (learned at level 25)
• Charge Beam (learned from the Move Tutor)
• Shadow Ball (learned from the Move Tutor)
• Hyper Beam (learned from the Move Tutor)

Moves that are used by Pokémon of the same type have their base damage increased by 50%. We call this same-type attack bonus (STAB). Thunderbolt is going to be your Jolteon’s main STAB move due to its high power.

Use Agile Style Charge Beam before it, and the move will not only deal STAB damage and boost Jolteon’s Sp. Attack, but also increase the Pokémon's chances of getting double turns. After all, Jolteon is very fast.

Then, have Jolteon learn Hyper Beam for coverage. Normal-type moves may not be strong against any type but they’ll hit any Pokémon. Shadow Ball is also there for more coverage. It’s a powerful Ghost move and is super effective against Psychic and Ghost, which are abundant during the night.
