Raid analysis

Dragonite with Draco Meteor (Community Day move) is a top-5 Dragon raid attacker. DPS = 22.0 — just behind Rayquaza and Salamence. Cheaper to power up than legendaries. Multiscale (Hidden Ability in main games but not in GO) doesn't apply.

PvP analysis

Dragonite is top-3 Master League and Ultra League. Dragon Breath generates energy at 4.0 EPT — fast enough to spam Dragon Claw (cheap shield bait) → Superpower (kill move that lowers user's Atk + Def). Superpower's debuff means fire 1 use to bait, then switch out — don't get stuck on -1/-1.

Best IVs to look for

Master League: 15/15/15 for max CP. Ultra League optimal: rank #1 PvPoke spread. Lucky Dragonite is great (12/12/12 floor) — Lucky-friendly investment.

Fast move data

Dragon Tail — 15.6 DPS damage per second, 3.3 EPT energy per turn.
