Spheal PvE Analysis

With neither ATK nor DEF crossing 100, Spheal isn't strong enough for PvE battles like Raids and Gyms. Focus on evolving it all the way to Walrein. 🦭

Spheal PvP Analysis

Recommended moves

🧸 Little Cup

Spheal is a good Pokémon in the Little Cup courtesy of the spammy Body Slam. It's quite bulky as well and its moveset makes it threatening both with shields and without. While it loses to threats like Deino, Wynaut, Bronzor, Ducklett, and Cottonee Spheal wins against Gligar, Seel, Vulpix, Alolan Vulpix, and Shelmet. Undoubtedly a handy team member. 👍

💎 The best moves for Spheal in PvP are Water Gun, Body Slam and Aurora Beam.
