Huntail is a Water Pokémon which evolves from Clamperl. It is vulnerable to Grass and Electric moves. Huntail's strongest moveset is Water Gun & Aqua Tail and it has a Max CP of 2,340.
"Huntail's presence went unnoticed by people for a long time because it lives at extreme depths in the sea. This Pokémon's eyes can see clearly even in the murky dark depths of the ocean."
Water Gun is preferable over Bite thanks to STAB and better energy generation. Aqua Tail is Huntail's STAB move, as well as being cheap and spammy for solid offensive pressure. Pair that with Crunch to maximize Huntail's coverage, though Ice Beam is potentially viable to hit the Ice-types that would otherwise threaten it.
Huntail's unimpressive bulk really does it no favors in Great League. Combine that with the fact that this is a format flush with incredibly powerful Water-types, and you'll see that Huntail just doesn't have the power level to cut it here.
Second verse, same as the first. Huntail just isn't good enough to bring out in Ultra League.
Huntail's low max CP prevents it from competing with the top threats of the Master League format.
