Anchor Shot, Heavy Slam or Gyro Ball?
>>
giga impact

Gyro Ball is devastating with 0ivs, negative speed nature and macho brace.
Heavy slam is shit.
Anchor shot is consistent.
>>
Anchor Shot for consistency and potential trapping fun

Only thing I've ever hit hard enough with gyroball to consider it worth it are Aerodactyl and Archeops. Everything else including fairies it does pitiful damage.

Might as well go with anchor shot

Anchor Shot is both a solid move for Dhel and a reasonable utility move.

Gyro Ball is an average move.
>Base Power = 25 × (Target's Current Speed / User's Current Speed)
>Cap of 150 BP
You need to be 3 times slower than the opponent to see it be almost as good as Anchor Shot, and closer to 4 times for it to start being worth considering. With a Base 40 speed, this still happens less often than you'd probably like it too.

Heavy Slam is a gimmick and less reliable than both.

I thought GB had a cap of 250. It kinda sucks then.

30 base speed and bellow is where it starts becoming reasonably reliable, but most Pokemon would still probably prefer something more consistent.

>none of the Pokemon with a base speed of 5 get Gyro Ball
Legitimate tragedy.
