      A tiny snake with too low of an Attack stat. Sorry Snivy, no PvE for you. 😮‍💨

      ⚔️ Raids

      The Snivy line isn't good for raids.

      🛡️ Gyms

      Snivy’s final form, Serperior, is bulky, and that's your best-case scenario for Gym defense. 🫥

      PvP AnalysisPvP Analysis

      Little CupLittle Cup

      Recommended moves

      💥 Snivy’s only PvP usage is in the Little Cup, with the moves Vine Whip, Energy Ball, and Seed Bomb.

      🧸 Little Cup

      The pure Grass-type Snivy has a very monotonous role in the Little Cup… as a pure Grass-type attacker! 😅 Unfortunately, Grass isn’t very strong offensively, and Snivy’s low Attack stat makes things even worse.

      Snivy is too underpowered for the rest of PvP, so it’s better to skip it for other Leagues or limited cups.
