    Shadow Seedot PvE Analysis

    For a statwise weak Pokémon like Seedot, even the Shadow boost doesn't help its cause in PvE battles like Raids and Gyms.

    Recommended moves

    • Little Cup:GrassBullet SeedDarkFoul PlayGrassGrass Knot

    🧸 Little Cup

    Shadow Seedot is another side of the same coin when it comes to comparison with regular Seedot. The extra damage output helps Shadow Seedot breeze through Igglybuff and Galarian Stunfisk, but at the same time, the loss of bulk hurts its showing against Wynaut and Shadow Oddish. With neither variant being truly impressive in this format, you don't have to debate the better pick and just go with a stronger option, like Shadow Oddish for instance.

    Shadow Seedot is too weak for other PvP Leagues.
