Pokemon by default come with two types of attack moves: Fast Attack and Charged Attack. These moves go hand in hand as fast moves deal small damage, can be used many times, and power-ups the Charged Attack. And Charged Attacks can only be used after charging. There are varieties of fast and charge moves differing from type and generation. Check out this article if you are wondering how to attack faster in Pokemon GO.
Pokemon GO: How to Attack Faster
Fast moves are basic moves, which are beneficial because they can be used several times and their cooldown period is lower than other Special or Charge Attacks. But what about Charged moves, can we increase their speed of charging or lessen the charge time? Yes, we can. You might have noticed that some players can use the same Charge Attack as you do faster. And you must be wondering why that is. The answer is simple, they use Fast Attack moves with more EPT (Energy Per Turn). We do not make Attacks move faster, we charge them faster to use them more times than the opponent.
