PVP Mode Explanatory Notes

PvP Moveset Explanation
Smack Down or Dragon Tail + Meteor Beam and Heavy Slam

Smack Down is preferred for its high damage output backed by STAB, in addition to good coverage against common typings. Dragon Tail generally performs worse partly due to lack of STAB, though there may be niche cases where you'd want the Dragon-type damage and extra energy generation.

Meteor Beam is an incredible move - its superior DPE and guaranteed Attack boost is worth the slight cost increase over Stone Edge. Heavy Slam is Aggron's cheapest Charged Attack, although it doesn't provide much coverage and isn't exactly cheap or strong. Thunder is Aggron's strongest option against Steel- and Water-type targets, but a super effective Thunder is only 11% stronger than a neutral Meteor Beam. The addition of Rock Tomb following the GBL Season 10 update is unimpressive, as its poor damage output and high energy cost discourages its use despite its new debuff utility. 

PvP Rating Explanation
Great League: 2 / 5

Aggron...isn't great. With plenty of other strong anti-flying options (Bastiodon and Galarian Stunfisk being the two most prevalent ones), it's just not worth bringing Aggron out most of the time.

Ultra League: 2.5 / 5

Aggron's still not great in Ultra League, though it's arguably a little better? Your options for strong anti-flyings are a little more limited here, which lets Aggron shine very slightly more.

Master League: 0 / 5

It's Aggron, what more needs to be said? With Dialga, Kyogre, Groudon, and Melmetal running around constantly, and limited need to Smack Down anything, Aggron's utility is incredibly limited. You could use Aggron, but should you? (No. You probably shouldn't.)
