Best Overall Ferroseed Moveset

In Pokemon GO, Ferroseed has a maximum CP of 1064, and a stat spread of 82 ATK, 155 DEF, and 127 STA. Ferroseed is boosted by Snow and Sunny weather and carries a dual type combination of Grass as the primary type, and Steel as the secondary type.

However, Ferrothorn does have resistances to the following types: Water, Steel, Grass, Electric, Dragon, Normal, Poison, Fairy, Rock, and Psychic.

To help work around this huge weakness to Fire types, players will need to determine the best moveset for Ferroseed.
