Now that Scarlet and Violet has had a chance to settle in, competitive battles are sure to be taking over. Let’s look at the fastest Pokémon available in the mainline games. A Pokémon’s speed determines whether it gets to go first in battle, or if you’re about to get pummelled before you get a chance to think. Choosing a ‘mon with a higher speed stat does put you at an advantage, so we’ve drawn up a list of the fastest overall, and the more attainable Pokémon that have a good base stat to work with.
We have loads more Pokémon lists for you, too, including our picks for the best gen 9 Pokémon, and the strongest Pokémon. Check out the Scarlet and Violet Mystery Gift codes for some freebies!
