List Of The Best Prestigers + Movesets Against Common Gym Defenders If You Like Dodging

pokemon go gym battle moves
Now that you can use 6 Pokémon to train gyms a common strategy is to use a "training squad" of Pokémon that are strong prestigers and are around the same CP. Any CP from 1000-1500 results in decent prestige gains depending on how comfortable you are in combat, but it is important to have your team close to the same CP!
While building my team I thought it would be useful to make a list of the best Pokémon to use against certain defending Pokémon. I like to get in the rhythm of dodging everything when convenient using fast attacks, so if you don't like dodging this list is not for you as it assumes you try to dodge everything (offense >> defense).
Dragonite
Cloyster: Frost Breath + Blizzard
Dewgong: Frost Breath + Blizzard
Lapras: Frost Breath + Blizzard / Ice Beam
Seadra: Dragon Breath + Blizzard
Snorlax
Parasect: Bug Bite + Solar Beam
Wigglytuff: Pound + Hyper Beam
Seadra: Water Gun + Hydro Pump
Starmie: Water Gun + Hydro Pump
Lapras
Raichu: Spark + Thunder
Parasect: Bug Bite + Solar Beam
Tangela: Vine Whip + Solar Beam
Ivysaur: Vine Whip + Solar Beam
Arcanine / Flareon
Seadra: Water Gun + Hydro Pump
Omastar: Water Gun + Hydro Pump
Starmie: Water Gun + Hydro Pump
Golduck: Water Gun + Hydro Pump
Exeggcutor
Butterfree: Bug Bite + Bug Buzz (if CP is high enough)
Venomoth: Bug Bite + Bug Buzz
Parasect: Bug Bite + X-Scissor
Scyther: Fury Cutter + Bug Buzz
Gyarados
Raichu: Spark / Thunder Shock + Thunder
Electabuzz: Thunder Shock + Thunder / Thunderbolt
Jolteon: Thunder Shock + Thunder
Electrode: Spark + Thunderbolt
Vaporeon / Poliwrath / Slowbro
Parasect: Bug Bite + Solar Beam
Tangela: Vine Whip + Solar Beam / Power Whip
Ivysaur / Venusaur: Vine Whip + Solar Beam
Raichu: Spark + Thunder
Venusaur / Vileplume / Victreebel
Charizard: Wing Attack + Fire Blast / Flamethrower
Arcanine: Fire Fang + Fire Blast
Alakazam: Psycho Cut + Psychic
Flareon: Ember + Fire Blast
Keep in mind this list is quite generalised and it may change depending on the defending Pokémon's moveset. Rankings determined here.
This list provides a mix between a Pokemon's dueling ability and its raw offense power, which priorities Pokémon that can defeat defending Pokémon quicker while they will take more damage and risk feinting if you don't try to dodge everything.
