Bronzor's Tier Ranking & Meta Analysis

Bronzor PvE Analysis

Anything Bronzor could do in raid battles, Metagross can do infinitely better and look cooler while doing it. The entire Bronzor family is a pale reflection of the Steel and Psychic family that came before it. It doesn't even have a good shiny.

Bronzor PvP Analysis

  • Little Cup - Beldum who? When eligible for Little Cup, Bronzor is an absolute beast due to it's impressive bulk and typing that provides it with a whopping 10 resistances! It will most likely be ranked in the top 10 for each Little Cup rotation where it's available.
  • Great League - Maxing out at 681 CP, Bronzor is never going to make an impact in any of the higher leagues.
  • Ultra League - Please, use Metagross.
  • Master League - Seriously, just use Metagross.
