A while back, we wrote a guide on the worst Pokemon to use in online ranked battles in Pokemon Legends: Z-A. As helpful as that knowledge is, it doesn’t actually help you score wins against other trainers, so this time we’re talking about the strongest Pokemon you can possibly use in competitive battles.
