How Gust performs in Pokémon GO PvP
Fast moves run on a turn clock — Gust takes 4 turns to execute. It deals 16 damage and generates 12 energy each cycle, putting it at 4.0 damage per turn and 3.00 energy per turn. Higher DPT means more chip damage between charged moves; higher EPT means faster charged-move loading.
Gust is damage-heavy — it chips defenders down even before the first charged move fires. Pair with cheap charged moves for steady pressure.

Save Elite Fast TMs for legacy moves only — moves no longer available in standard rotation. Gust appears in current rotation, so a normal TM will eventually land it.
