This Pokémon has surprisingly good stats, making it a worthwhile Pokémon to use in the Master League and five-star raids against other legendary Pokémon.

These are all of the moves Meloetta (Aria) can learn.

Fast moves

  • Confusion (Psychic-type) – 16 damage and 3 energy per turn (4 damage per turn) – 4 turns
  • Quick Attack (Normal-type) – 5 damage and 3.5 energy per turn (2.5 damage per turn) – 2 turns

Charged moves

  • Dazzling Gleam (Fairy-type) – 110 damage and 70 energy
  • Hyper Beam (Normal-type) – 150 damage and 80 energy
  • Psyshock (Psychic-type) – 70 damage and 45 energy
  • Thunderbolt (Electric-type) – 90 damage and 55 energy

You don’t have too many choices for Meloetta (Aria)’s fast move. Of the two options, we’re going to recommend you go with confusion. Normally, you want to go with the fast move that favors giving your Pokémon more energy, but confusion does far too much damage for you to choose quick attack. Plus, Meloetta (Aria) is partially a Psychic-type, giving confusion a bonus of damage.

When it comes to the charged moves, you have a few options. While none of them the attacks are relic song, at this time, the options that you can pick are excellent. The two choices you want to go with will be psyshock and thunderbolt. Psyshock is a superb Psychic-type move that Meloetta can naturally learn, and thunderbolt is a solid backup for you to use in most battle situations.

The best moveset to teach Meloetta (Aria) is the fast move confusion and the charged moves psyshock and thunderbolt.
