We thought we’d take a look at some normal Pokémon, but not just any random creature. No, this is a list of the best normal Pokémon in Pokémon Go, and trust us when we say that any of these ‘mon will make a fine addition to your team. There are hundreds upon hundreds of Pokémon out there. Some are fire, ice, dark, ghost, psychic, or water-types, to name but a few, while some are of the normal variety, and objectively, this is sad, because of the wonderous types out there, who’d want to be typecast as normal? Well, we’re here to tell you that in Pokémon Go, the normal-types actually kick butt, and are a force to be reckoned with.
Of course, we do understand that you might prefer the excitement that ‘normal’ just can’t give, in which case, our lists of the best ghost Pokémon, water Pokémon, electric Pokémon, fire Pokémon, dragon Pokémon, and fairy Pokémon. So go on, get out there, prove you’re the very best, and catch ‘em all.
Anyway, onto our list of the best normal Pokémon in Pokémon Go.
Meloetta
Fast attack: Quick attack
Charged attack: Hyper beam
Not only is Meloetta a normal Pokémon, but it’s a psychic-type too, which makes it a force to be reckoned with on the battlefield, as not only does this ‘mon have access to hard-hitting normal attacks, but it can get into your enemies head.
Porygon-Z
Fast attack: Lock-on
Charged attack: Hyper beam
Undoubtedly, Porygon-Z is one of the best normal Pokémon out there, with access to some brutal attacks. If you want an all-rounder that can hold its own in the majority of battles, this is the ‘mon for you.
Bewear
Fast attack: Tackle
Charged attack: Stomp
Beware Bewear, as this is one powerful creature that has no problem laying the smackdown on its opponents, which is, of course, beneficial to any trainer that chooses this normal-type for their team – the fact it also has access to fighting-type moves doesn’t hurt either. Actually, it does.
Slaking
Fast attack: Yawn
Charged attack: Body slam
This is one lazy king, but don’t let that fool you, as Slaking is one hard hitter that can pummel your opponent into the ground. Seriously, this is one normal Pokémon that can show you just how powerful the type can be, even if it has no secondary type.
Blissey
Fast attack: Pound
Charged attack: Hyper beam
Blissey can leave your opponent in bliss, and by that, we mean it can knock them into next week and leave them in such a daze that they don’t know what’s going on anymore – ignorance is bliss and all that jazz.
Wigglytuff
Fast attack: Pound
Charged attack: Hyper beam
Wigglytuff deserves a spot on this list for every reason you can imagine – it’s adorable, powerful, fast, has access to great attacks, is a hybrid with normal and fairy-types, and I’d worry about my job security if I didn’t mention my boss’ favourite ‘mon. Seriously though, all my other points are valid, so take a chance on this gen one creature.
Lopunny
Fast attack: Pound
Charged attack: Hyper beam
Considering Lopunny has one of the most powerful mega evolutions on offer in Pokémon Go, we think that’s reason enough to consider this stage two Pokémon for your team. That, and it has access to some fantastic attacks, especially since it’s also a fighting type.
Cinccino
Fast attack: Pound
Charged attack: Hyper beam
Cinccino deserves a mention for being as strong as it is cute, and trust us when we say it’s adorable. Just look at this fabulous creature. Anyway, despite only being a normal Pokémon, Cinccino can hit hard and move fast.
Ambipom
Fast attack: Scratch
Charged attack: Hyper beam
Ambipom is quite resilient and is equally as capable of dishing out some damage. We would probably select other ‘mon on this list first, but we can’t deny this Pokémon’s prowess in a battle.
Regigigas
Fast attack: Hidden power
Charged attack: Giga impact
The undisputed best normal Pokémon in Pokémon Go is the legendary beast that’s Regigigas – this monstrous ‘mon has access to some incredibly powerful attacks, and could wipe out its fellow titans in the blink of an eye – so get out there and make things gassy… Uh, no, not like that.
There you have it, the best normal Pokémon in Pokémon Go. For even more great adventures, make sure you take a look at our best Pokémon games list.
