⚔️ Raids

Now fully evolved, Scolipede becomes viable as a raid attacker! It excels as a Poison-type attacker, making it handy for the growing list of Fairy-type raid bosses. This bug has one Poison moveset: Poison Jab and Sludge Bomb. As a Bug-type attacker, Scolipede can also hold its own with the optimal moveset of Bug Bite and X-Scissor. Just be sure to check the raid bosses to ensure they can’t hit back with a super effective Flying, Fire, Psychic, or Rock move.

🛡️ Gyms

Bug and Poison don’t make for the most effective defensive types, and Scolipede's overall stats don’t make it a strong gym defender. However, it double resists common Fighting types, which could help slow down attackers.

🔵 Great League

Scolipede is ranked incredibly low in Great League, with its only real win being against Azumarill. However, there are much better counters for this Pokémon.

🟡 Ultra League

While not highly ranked, Scolipede could serve as an interesting counter to Pokémon like Clefable and even Cresselia, thanks to its fast move spamming to trigger potential shield use. The optimal moveset here is Poison Jab, X-Scissor, and Sludge Bomb.

🟣 Master League

Maxing out at 2766 CP, Scolipede is far too low to compete in Master League, where titans often exceed the 4000 CP barrier.
