Megahorn gives physical hitters like Rhydon and Nidoking one of the few strong answers to Psychic-types in Let's Go's tiny roster. With no held items and no abilities in the format, raw coverage power is everything. 120 base power Bug-type, backed by Rhydon's 130 Attack, fills a gap few other moves can.

Partner Pikachu's exclusive Zippy Zap had +2 priority and guaranteed critical hits on every use. In a format stripped down to 153 Pokemon with no abilities or held items, this move dominated. Nothing outsped it, nothing tanked it reliably, and it made Partner Pikachu the strongest competitive pick by far.

Even in Let's Go's simplified competitive scene, Stealth Rock from Golem and Rhydon shaped team construction. With only Kanto Pokemon plus Melmetal available, the hazard punished every Fire and Flying-type in a very small roster. Its impact on a limited pool was outsized.

Game Rules

How Moves Work in Let's Go Pikachu & Eevee

Moves are the entire strategy layer

With no held items and no abilities, the four move slots carry every ounce of strategy in a battle, so coverage, boosts, and status all have to fit in those four choices and every TM decision feels bigger than it has in years.

Trainers are the proving ground

Wild encounters are catches, not fights, so movesets only get tested against trainers, Coach Trainers, and the Elite Four. Build for those set-piece battles instead of route clearing, because route clearing barely exists.

Questions

Pokémon Moves: Frequently Asked

Are TMs reusable in Pokémon Let's Go Pikachu and Eevee?

Yes. TMs are reusable in Let's Go. The TM list is limited to 60 TMs covering Gen 1 moves, since the game only includes the original 151 Pokémon plus Meltan and Melmetal.

What are the exclusive partner moves in Let's Go?

Your partner Pikachu or Eevee can learn exclusive moves from Move Tutors in Pokémon Centers. Pikachu gets Zippy Zap, Splishy Splash, and Floaty Fall, while Eevee gets Bouncy Bubble, Buzzy Buzz, Sizzly Slide, and several others.

Are HMs in Let's Go Pikachu and Eevee?

No. HMs are completely removed. Field obstacles like Cut trees and Surf water are handled by your partner Pokémon or by rideable Pokémon. No move slots are wasted on field moves.

How does the move pool differ from the original Red and Blue?

Let's Go uses modern Gen 7 move mechanics including the physical/special split and updated move stats. Many moves have their modern base power values, and some later-generation moves like Dazzling Gleam are available via TM.

Can Pokémon learn moves from other generations in Let's Go?

The move pool is limited primarily to moves available to the original 151 Pokémon, but uses their modern learnsets rather than Gen 1 learnsets. Some later-generation moves are available via TM, giving the Kanto roster modern coverage options.
