Details about new moves in Pokemon Go Adventures Abound

by

Three new moves have been introduced by the Pokemon Go Adventures Abound season. Each move has a play in the meta, especially considering the buffs and debuffs attached to them. Trainers will now have to rethink their strategies to counter Pokemon that previously weren’t part of the meta.

Trailblaze (Grass-type Charged Move), Scorching Sands (Ground-type Charged Move), and Triple Axel (Ice-type Charged Move) are now available in Pokemon Go Adventures Abound. There have also been a few move balances in the Leagues, making Astonish Fast Move better than before and Greninja a more powerful meta.

Here is everything to know about the new moves in Pokemon Go Adventures Abound.
