⚔️ Raids

Shadow Bayleef is the shadow form of the grass-type starter from Johto. As Bayleef is the second of a three-stage evolutionary line, it doesn’t do all that much damage and is outclassed by its evolution’s regular form in terms of attack power and moveset.

PvP Analysis

Recommended moves

• Great League:Magical LeafAncient PowerEnergy Ball

Shadow Bayleef is in a strange place, as this middle evolution does not have any role to play in the Little Cup, unlike its pre-evolution, and is wholly outclassed by its evolution in the three main open leagues. As such, Shadow Bayleef is not worth using as a PvP Pokémon.
