Fire hits for ×2.56 — Forretress's Bug/Steel typing is double-weak, so those attackers outperform their score gap.
Watch its Bug/Electric/Steel/Ground/Rock moves — counters like Blaziken (Mega) and Charizard (Mega Y) take super-effective damage from them.
Clear weather boosts Fire moves ×1.2 — the best time to battle Forretress.

Rankings are estimated cycle DPS (attack stat × move damage ÷ cycle time, with STAB and type effectiveness). Not a full battle simulation.
