Which movesets should be used in various battles for Tsareena in Pokemon GO? This guide covers the top Gym, raid, and PvP movesets for Tsareena.
Top Tsareena Moves for Pokemon GO Gym and Raid Battles (PvE)
Best Offensive Moveset for Tsareena in Pokemon GO Gym and Raid Battles
If you plan on using Tsareena to battle a Gym or participate in a raid in Pokemon GO, it is recommended to teach it the Fast Move Magical Leaf and the Charged Move Grass Knot. Since Tsareena is a pure Grass type Pokemon, it will only receive a same type attack bonus (STAB) from Grass type moves. By using Magical Leaf and Grass Knot, Tsareena will have the strongest Grass type attacks available. You can strategically choose when to use Tsareena in battle, either against a raid Pokemon that is weak to Grass, or against a defending Gym Pokemon that is vulnerable to Grass type attacks.

| Magical Leaf | Grass Knot |
Optimal Defensive Tsareena Moveset for Pokemon GO Gym Battles
Leaving Tsareena behind to defend a Gym can be challenging, but there are a few options that can make it more effective. It is recommended that Tsareena knows the Fast Move Charm and the Charged Move Triple Axel, although using Grass Knot can also be a viable alternative. Charm is especially useful for defense as it can deal more damage to opponents who are sent out against Tsareena compared to Magical Leaf. Additionally, Tsareena’s weaknesses to Bug, Flying, Ice, Fire, and Poison type attacks can be countered by Charm’s neutral damage to Bug, Flying, and Ice types. While Charm may be resisted by Fire and Poison, it is important to note that Grass attacks are also resisted by these types.
This concept also holds true for Triple Axel. Being an Ice type move, it is particularly effective against Pokemon that Tsareena is vulnerable to. Additionally, the guaranteed Attack boost allows Tsareena to maximize its damage output before being defeated.

| Charm | Triple Axel |
Recommended Tsareena Moveset for the Pokemon GO Battle League (PvP)
If you plan on using Tsareena in a Pokemon GO Battle League, it’s optimal to have the Fast Move Magical Leaf and the Charged Moves Triple Axel and High Jump Kick. Despite not receiving a Same Type Attack Bonus (STAB), this moveset is effective because it allows Tsareena to better handle threatening Pokemon with the combination of Triple Axel and High Jump Kick.
One way to obtain High Jump Kick is by evolving Steenee during a Bounsweet Community Day. Alternatively, it can also be obtained by using an Elite Charged TM on Tsareena.
| Fast Move | Charged Move 1 | Charged Move 2 |
| Magical Leaf | Triple Axel | High Jump Kick |
Despite having this moveset, Tsareena is not particularly effective in the Pokemon GO Battle League, primarily due to the risk of High Jump Kick lowering its Defense. For optimal results, it is advised to teach Tsareena its strongest PvE moves and utilize it for Gyms and raids. In PvP battles, it may be more beneficial to include a different Grass type Pokemon, such as Victreebel, in your team.
