Granbull PvP Analysis

Recommended moves

Granbull is extremely frail; it’s a fully evolved Pokémon with a double-digit DEF stat in the Great League. It also has Charm as its only STAB fast attack, with no spammy charged attack to compensate for how little energy it generates. As such, it is not a good Pokémon for PvP.
