Thoughts on Dragapult?

sir_uledge

I'm approaching my next Special Selection soon for my License Journey, and I want a good, easy-to-use jungler carry because Scyther/Scizor is too advanced for me. I'm thinking of getting Dragapult. I have the limited license for it that I'm using right now, and the items I've been using are Attack Weight, Accel Bracer, Rapid-Fire Scarf, and X Attack. Any ideas or tips? If you know of a better option for my special selection or tips for Dragapult, please let me know!

I didn't like using Dragon Breath...

It was a simple, straight forward attack that I didn't feel like flowed well

Shadow Ball actually makes it to where you deal more damage to Pokémon that are hit by it!

Combine that will all the Attack increasing Held Items I have and I'm pretty sure I'm dealing pretty big damage

I personally use the same thing I do for almost all of my Physical Attackers

Drain Crown

Muscle Band

Curse Bangle

My Item is X Attack but I'm going to change to X Speed

Just curious, any specific reason for Shadow Ball? I heard that Dragon Breath is typically the better option.

Yeah, I've found that X Attack is better if you're in lane, especially with all the early game pressure, and X Speed is better in you're the jungler since you need to arrive at the objectives before anyone else.
