      PvE AnalysisPvE Analysis

      Recommended moves

      Grovyle has the traditional mid-stage evolution stat spread, but still, with a quick moveset of Bullet Seed and Leaf Blade, it can clean Gyms and 1-Star Raid Bosses weak to Grass-type damage quickly. For bigger and more challenging battles, Grovyle needs to evolve. ☘️

      💎 Grovyle’s best moveset for PvE is Bullet Seed and Leaf Blade.

      PvP AnalysisPvP Analysis

      Recommended moves

      🔵 Great League

      The first issue with Grovyle is that many, many Great League Pokémon have better stats for the format. Second, its best PvP moves compromise Grass, Normal, and Flying types, which aren't a great offensive combination. If you want to use a Grass Pokémon in the Great League, opt for Jumpluff or Serperior instead. 🍃

      Maxing out at 1891 CP, Grovyle doesn't work out for the Ultra and Master League formats.

      💎 Grovyle's best moveset for PvP is Quick Attack, Leaf Blade, and Aerial Ace.
