If you have participated in Part 2 of the Pokémon Go Holiday Event 2021, you would have come across a new Pokémon called the Bergmite.

If you are wondering if Avalugg is worth keeping and working on for Raids or Battle League, then this guide is for you.
All Move Sets of Avalugg in Pokémon Go
Ice Fang is one of the best PvP move set that Avalugg has, especially when paired with Avalanche and Body Slam. Even though there are two Fast Moves that Avalugg can use, Ice Fang is potentially more powerful in the set. It deals an equal amount of damage as its counterpart, Crunch, but on a plus, it generates twice the amount of energy as well as the STAB bonus.
For Charged Moves, Avalugg has the basic Body Slam. You can use Avalanche as a secondary to put in some STAB damage.

Avalugg: Is It Worth It?
Since the Avalugg is an Ice-type only, its greatest weakness is against Fighting, Rock, Fire, and Steel. Its only resistance is other Ice types. Other than that, the Avalugg is best used as a Tank, since it has 216 Stamina and a whopping 240 Defense. You can expect the Avalugg to hold its ground even in the toughest of situations.
For PvP, you can use the Avalugg in all Leagues, but you will benefit more in the Master League. With its max CP capped at 3615, teamed with its Ice-type moves along with STAB, you can take down most Dragon-types with ease.
In terms of Avalugg’s performance during PvE, you can sit out of using Avalugg for Raid Battles and Gym Defense due to their slow nature and lack of type resistances.
That’s all there is to know about the Avalugg in Pokémon Go and its move sets and if it is worth spending your time evolving it. Once you get hold of an Avalugg, you can bet it can be a formidable foe for PvP battles.
