Arqade Asked on August 5, 2021
How do I determine whether my pokemon scales with physical or special damage?
It seems like neither type, range/melee, roles, nor colour on moves indicates the scaling of each pokemon’s attack.
I have done some testing individually, but I see no pattern nor information that the game provides in an accessible spot – am I missing something?
You're right: the game doesn't provide this information in an accessible spot.
As far as I know, the only way to test this is by playing in Practice Mode, and comparing the damage inflicted to the clone with / without some equipped items.
People have already done the hard work for us, so I'll just quote Serebii here:
| Pokémon | Attack Type |
|---|---|
| Venusaur | Special |
| Charizard | Physical |
| Pikachu | Special |
| Alolan Ninetales | Special |
| Wigglytuff | Special |
| Machamp | Physical |
| Slowbro | Special |
| Gengar | Special |
| Mr. Mime | Special |
| Snorlax | Physical |
| Gardevoir | Special |
| Absol | Physical |
| Garchomp | Physical |
| Lucario | Physical |
| Crustle | Physical |
| Greninja | Physical |
| Talonflame | Physical |
| Zeraora | Physical |
| Cinderace | Physical |
| Eldegoss | Special |
| Cramorant | Special |
Note that the basic attack of each Pokémon might use a different attack type than listed.
