Mareep in the meta
PvE Analysis
Mareep’s low ATK and poor DEF result in underwhelming damage output as well as quick faints 😵. As expected from the base Pokémon of a three-stage evolution line, Mareep isn't viable for PvE combat 😅.
⚔️ Raids - Little sheep are meant for grazing, not Raid battles 🐑
🛡️ Gyms - With a meagre 79 DEF, Mareep goes down quickly to Gym attackers.
PvP Analysis
🧸 Little Cup - Mareep is a great pick for the Little Cup, where the incredible energy gains of Thunder Shock combine well with the low-cost Body Slam to establish Mareep as a spammy attacker ⚡. For greater damage output when shields are down, Discharge is the way to go. While it's fun to use, low DEF and inadequate coverage ultimately inhibit Mareep from establishing itself as a top pick.
🟣 Great League - Baa Baa Electric Sheep, have you any viability? No sir, no sir, three PvP Leagues null. None for the Great League…
🟡 Ultra League - None for the Ultra League 🐑
🟣 Master League - None for the Ma… chomp Dragons burp 😋
