One of the many evolutions to Eevee, Umbreon is the dark type evolution and stands as one of the best for its design and moveset. As such Umbreon is able to learn a variety of movesets even outside of its type and is able to learn some of the strongest moves in the Pokemon games.
Moves like Moonlight and Foul Play are great as it matches Umbreon's type, making it more effective than other moves outside of its type. Meanwhile moves like Protect and Substitute are great defensive moves that is sure to keep Umbreon alive and kicking long enough to make it through the battle. Which Umbreon moveset do you think is the best?
A non-damaging Fairy type move, Moonlight allows HP to be restored by the moonlight during battle, and it restore about half the user's max HP. Considering how powerful some healing moves can be, Moonlight stands out as one of the best in the Fairy type moveset.
Out of the many non-damaging moves out there, Taunt stands out due to its ability to force their opponents to choose any of their attack moves, absolutely refusing to go on the defensive despite their trainers commands. In a game where sometimes the best move is a defensive one, taking that option away from them shows that you are being strategic in Pokemon battles.
Snarl allows the user to yells as if it is ranting about something, making the target's Sp. Atk stat decrease while dealing damage along the way. Despite its low power, the move is great for setting up stronger opponents to fail and become weaker as the battle go on.
A non-damaging Fairy type move, Charm allows its user to charms their target into complacency, sharply reducing its Attack power. While it is one of more simpler moves on the list, Charm stands out as a reliable move that is sure to disrupt any attacks and buys you enough time to do some damage.
A great defense move that protects them from any incoming attacks, it is a fantastic move that will get Umbreon out of a pinch if needed, however continuous usage of the move will result in a higher likelihood of the move failing.
A non-damaging move that badly poisons the target and inflicts increasing damage with every passing turn. Toxic is a simple move that stands on par with some end game moves for the amount of damage it inflicts and it strategic worth in some of the toughest battles trainers can face.
