Best Pyroar Moveset and Nature in Pokémon Legends: Arceus
Pyroar, first introduced in Pokémon X and Y (Generation VI), is a unique creature as it is the only Fire- and Normal-type Pokémon in the franchise, alongside its pre-evolution, Litleo. In Pokémon Legends: Arceus (Z-A), Pyroar has even received a Mega Evolution, enhancing its battle potential further.
Best Moveset for Pyroar in Pokémon Legends: Arceus
To get the most value out of Pyroar, the most optimal moves for it to know are:
- Flamethrower
- Hyper Voice
- Earth Power
- Overheat
In Pokémon Legends: Arceus, Pyroar learns Overheat upon evolution, Earth Power at level 28, Flamethrower at level 32, and Hyper Voice at level 42. This means that you won’t need TMs to unlock Pyroar’s full offensive potential, as it naturally learns all its best moves through leveling up.
Best Nature for Pyroar in Pokémon Legends: Arceus
To maximize Pyroar’s performance in battles, it is best to focus on boosting its Special Attack or Speed. The recommended natures are:
- Modest (increases Special Attack, lowers Attack)
- Timid (increases Speed, lowers Attack)
These natures allow Pyroar to either overwhelm opponents with powerful special moves or outspeed threats to keep consistent pressure on the enemy.
You can obtain the Mints corresponding to these natures at the following locations:
- Modest Mint: Flower stalls in Sushi High Roller, Wild Zone 3, and Jaune Plaza
- Timid Mint: Flower stalls in Restaurant Le Nah
