Best Zoroark Build Unite (2024)

FAQs

What is the best set up for Zoroark? ›

Zoroark's best set would consist of Nasty Plot and Fightinium Z, allowing it to punch through Pokemon like Empoleon and Blissey after a boost.

Zoroark becomes immune to hindrances and releases three dark shock waves, dealing damage to opposing Pokémon, with each shock wave being more powerful than the last.

Summary. Zoroark is a Dark Pokémon which evolves from Zorua. It is vulnerable to Fighting, Bug and Fairy moves. Zoroark's strongest moveset is Snarl & Foul Play and it has a Max CP of 2,571.

You can obtain Zoroark for 14,000 Aeos coins or 575 Aeos gems at the Unite Battle Committee shop.

Zoroark gets Grass knot, while Gengar gets Energy Ball (and Giga Drain, if Pokeshifting from 4th gen). If you are looking for sheer special attacking power, Gengar is the better choice. However, if you want a mixed set or physical set, Zoroark comes out the winner. Both are good however.

Zoroark can create incredibly realistic illusions. However, Zoroark are incapable of physically changing themselves into another form; they are merely capable of casting illusions. They can transform into both people and other Pokémon. When a Zoroark takes the form of a human, it is capable of human speech.

The number one Pokémon inside of Unite right now is Zacian. On release, Zacian was the epitome of a Unite player's nightmare. However, Zacian did seem to take a backseat with the release of Mewtwo X and Mewtwo Y. But since the big bad Mewtwo Y has seen some changes Zacian has emerged back at the top.

I Honestly think it's Mewtwo X. Out of the pokemon that I have played consistently I would say buzzwole then goodra. I have to go with Dragonite. Tyranitar is a close second, then Espeon.

Pokemon that have good type synergy with Zoroark, such as Weezing, are excellent partners too because they let Zoroark trick opponents with Illusion better. Entry hazard support from Pokemon such as Nidoqueen, Forretress, and Roserade is appreciated to give Zoroark an easier time KOing foes.

As the first Pokemon introduced for Gen 5, Zoroark has become somewhat of a fan favorite, even sometimes assumed to be a Legendary or Mythical Pokemon by fans. However, as part of only a two-stage evolutionary line with Zorua, Zoroark doesn't meet the criteria to even be Pseudo Legendary.

What is Zoroark's hidden ability? ›

> Each has the ability to fool a large group of people simultaneously. They protect their lair with illusory scenery. Stories say those who tried to catch Zoroark were trapped in an illusion and punished.

Zoroark always comes female and Zorua always comes male.

It now costs 14,000 Aeos coins or 575 Aeos gems.

Timid or Naive are the best natures. Usually Zoroark is played with a choiced item, scarf/specs, with the following moves: U-Turn, Flamethrower, Dark Pulse/Night Daze and Focus Blast. You can also run Nasty plot on it with the Life Orb or the Leftovers.

Snarl and Foul Play make for Zoroark's best possible moveset. Shadow Claw is semi-close to Snarl and hits the same types for Super Effective damage, but it's ultimately an inferior move due to a lack of STAB. Sludge Bomb and Flamethrower are lesser options.

Disguise it as something that would be a target of Ghost, Dark, or Psychic type attacks, for starters. Picking something that's slow (So you can surprise them by outspeeding them) and/or also has moves in common with Zoroark so it won't blow its cover after a single attack helps, too.
