We dodge for nobody, the line-up

Paraphrasing Spaceballs there's a variant for how to attack gyms, and prestige friendly ones for that matter.

This is how I play. It's extremely time-efficient, but it also goes berserk on your bag.

I spin some 150 to 200 pokestops daily, and I guess that's needed for my slightly suicidal approach. If you belong to the players with easy access to a very large number of pokestops in a small area (or short time anyway), then this might be something for you.

Don't dodge. As in don't dodge anything, apart from the occasional Hyper Beam or Solar Beam. Watch your body-bag fill up at a depressing rate and just keep pushing. You're wading in revives and potions anyway, so getting your beat up pokemon ready to fight is preferable to discarding all those revives and potions.


So, now we've set the conditions.


This gives us reason to take a slightly different approach to our preferred line-up.

For all attackers:

• Attack 15. Defence and Stamina doesn't matter

Dragonite:

• Dragon Tail / Outrage
• Hurricane and Hyper Beam are also servicable as charge attack. Observe that Hyper Beam does almost the same damage as Hurricane over time

Machamp:

• Counter / Dynamic Punch
• Close Combat also servicable as charge attack

Vaporeon:

• Water Gun / Hydro Pump

Exeggutor:

• Bullet Seed / Solar Beam

Jolteon:

• Thunder Shock / Discharge
• All other combinations servicable

Victreebel

• Razor Leaf / Leaf Blade
• Solar Beam almost as good as Leaf Blade as charge attack

Lapras:

• Frost Breath / Ice Beam
• Blizzard also servicable as charge attack

Flareon:

• Fire Spin / Overheat

That's about it. You probably want to double up on Jolteon and Lapras. When Tyranitar starts showing up in bulk a second Machamp seems to be a good idea.
