Serperior's Tier Ranking & Meta Analysis

Read meta analysis

Serperior PvE Analysis

Recommended moves

Serperior is among the weakest starter Pokémon in PvE owing to its extremely low Attack stat of only 161. Additionally, Grass types in general compete with other types when facing Ground, Rock, and Water Pokémon, and these other types usually perform better. This further diminishes Serperior's position as a whole. 😭😭

💥 The best PvE moves for Serperior are Vine Whip and Frenzy Plant.

⚔️ Raids

A Frenzy Plant Serperior is not good enough for raids, as it is outclassed by several Grass Pokémon in terms of damage. 😶‍🌫️

🛡️ Gyms

Serperior is tanky enough to defend Gyms better than most Grass-type Pokémon. Do give it a shot! 🐍

Serperior PvP Analysis

Recommended moves

Serperior's bulk is key to its success in the lower PvP platforms, as it can even absorb super-effective hits. However, this bulk isn't enough to win most matches, especially given the presence of better Grass-type starters like Venusaur, Meganium, and Chesnaught. 🍃

💥 The best PvP moves for Serperior are Vine Whip, Frenzy Plant, and Aerial Ace.

🔵 Great League

Serperior excels in its singular Grass-type role, achieving great success. 💚

However, there are complaints. Aerial Ace is a strange and weak second move. Even Meganium hits harder, is bulkier, and has a superior second move (Earthquake) to capitalize on. 🌿

That said, Serperior is far from bad. This tank serpent defeats notable Pokémon like Water types, Annihilape, Cresselia, Wigglytuff, Galarian Corsola, Clodsire, Azumarill, and Malamar. It slithers to the top of the Great League throne! 🐍👑

🟡 Ultra League

Serperior slows down in the Ultra League, struggling against massive threats like Giratina (Altered Forme), Registeel, and Venusaur. 😨

Still, it earns notable victories against Pokémon like Ampharos, Clefable, Shadow Golurk, and Primeape. It just cannot handle the Ultra League’s biggest threats. 😣
