Decidueye’s Fast Move of choice should be Leafage thanks to several factors. It gains STAB from its Grass typing and generates a good amount of Energy per use. While it does slightly less damage than the others, the balance that Leafage provides as a Fast Move will serve Decidueye better overall.

Using Decidueye’s newly acquired Frenzy Plant Charged Move is the best option, as it is one of the strongest Grass-type Charged Moves in the game.

Decidueye’s second Charged Move is up to you, as both Brave Bird and Spirit Shackle offer good type coverage, with the latter one being way cheaper.

Pokemon Go Decidueye best Raid moveset

The best Decidueye moveset for Raid battles consists of Magical Leaf as a Fast Move and Frenzy Plant as a Charged Move.

Out of all the Fast Moves Decidueye has, Magical Leaf is the one that deals the most damage. Plus, it benefits from STAB, which can be increased if paired with another Grass-type move such as Frenzy Plant.

Decidueye’s strongest Charged Move is Brave Bird. However, its secondary typing is changed from Flying to Ghost once it reaches its third stage, so going with it will make you lose STAB. More so, Frenzy Plant not only pairs nicely with Magical Leaf and benefits from STAB, but it also costs half than Brave Bird.
