Ledyba's Tier Ranking & Meta Analysis

Read meta analysis

Ledyba PvE Analysis

With extremely low stats and a typing that's generally difficult to use in PvE, Ledyba is irrelevant for both Raid battles and Gym defense.

Ledyba PvP Analysis

🧸 Little Cup

The huge damage boost to Silver Wind in the Forever Forward Season update makes the already hard-hitting Ledyba a legitimate threat in the Little League. Add the fact that Ledyba is decently bulky and also packs Swift, a shield-baiting move, and you can see why this Bug Pokémon is a recipe for success.

Dark, Grass, and Psychic are three of the most prominent types in this format, so Ledyba with a super viable Bug-type moveset is amazing already. All this helps Ledyba eliminate core threats like Deino, Umbreon, Shadow Oddish, Cottonee, Bulbasaur, and Wynaut. Also, its flexible set of moves gives it an upper hand over the likes of Wigglytuff, Chansey, Barboach, Skorupi, and Seel. In a nutshell, Ledyba is quite dominant in Little Cup’s battles and is always going to be an asset for your team.

With a max CP of only 823, Ledyba isn't convenient for any other PvP League.
