The four best moves for Ceruledge
The best moves with Ceruledge are Bitter Blade, Shadow Sneak, Swords Dance, and Close Combat. All of these work well together and help Ceruledge stay on the battlefield more. The moves balance attacking, healing, and increasing overall durability.
Bitter Bite
When you use Bitter Bite, Ceruledge attacks the enemy with a bitter slashing attack and heals itself by half the damage done, making Bitter Bite the best move for Ceruledge. If you properly use this move during the battle, you will be able to stay in the battle way longer than your enemies.
Shadow Sneak
Shadow Sneak is a simple move where Ceruledge extends its shadow and attacks the enemy from behind. What makes this move special is it always goes first. It’s best to use this move when the enemy has low health, and you want to attack first to finish them.
Close Combat
Close Combat is a high-risk and high-return move. When you use this move, Ceruledge attacks the enemy up close and leaves defending itself, which deals extra damage to the enemy. But when the enemy attacks you, Ceruledge will take more damage than usual.
Swords Dance
Lastly, we have Swords Dance, which is a simple move. Using this move greatly increases your Ceruledge’s attack stat but gives the enemy a free turn to do whatever. You should only use this move when your Ceruledge has enough health to take some damage from the enemy.
