In Pokémon Legends: Arceus, players can encounter, battle, and catch the powerful Lunar legendary Pokémon Cresselia. Cresselia is a Psychic-type Pokémon with a huge stat total. While it doesn’t have the best attack stats, it still has some pretty impressive moves.
Cresselia is a purely Psychic-type Pokémon, so most of its powerful attacks are also Psychic-type. This is because of S.T.A.B. (Same Type Attack Bonus), which gives Pokémon a boost to moves that are of the same typing as them. Cresselia’s best moves are Moonblast, Psychic, Psycho Cut, and Slash.
Cresselia will learn Moonblast at level 46 (masters at level 59), Psychic at level 36 (masters at level 49), Psycho Cut at level 19 (masters at level 31), and Slash at level 12 (masters at level 23).
How to use Cresselia best in battle
Cresselia is a solely Psychic-type Pokémon. It is always a good idea to know which moves are resistant and which are super effective against the user’s Pokémon when going into battle. Psychic-type Pokémon are vulnerable to Bug, Dark, and Ghost-type moves. Psychic-type attacks are super effective against Fighting and Poison-type Pokémon.
