Offensive Pokemons are those that deals a great amount of damage. This would be determined by different factors such as CP and Pokemon Type. Most Pokemon types have moves that can be Super effective to one type but is Not very effect against another type. Considering that the Pokemon's level and CP are almost the same, the Pokemon type would be the determining factor for winning Gym Battles. In determining the Pokemon that has the best offensive power, there are three things that must be considered:

  • Which Pokemon type has moves that are Super Effective against most of the other Pokemon Types?
  • Which Pokemon type has moves has the lowest chance of inflicting a Not Very Effective damage against other Pokemon Types?
  • Which Pokemon type has the highest average score regarding the two considerations above?

Based from Pokemon Go players that has been analyzing the strengths and weaknesses of the Pokemons in Pokemon Go, the Pokemon type that possess moves that are Super Effective against most Pokemon Types are the Ground type Pokemons (eg. Nidoking, Nidoqueen, Sandslash, Onyx). On the other hand, the type that has moves with the lowest chance of inflicting a Not Very Effective damage are the Dragon type Pokemons (eg. Dratini, Dragonair, Dragonite). Lastly, if both aspects will be considered, the type with the highest average score would be the Psychic type Pokemons (eg. Slowpoke, Drowzee, Abra, Exeggcute). After considering the three aspects that were mentioned above, you should also keep in mind that most Pokemon are considered under two Pokemon types which means they can possess both types of Pokemon moves.
