Minccino's Tier Ranking & Meta Analysis

Read meta analysis

Minccino PvE Analysis

⚔️ Raids

Minccino is the first stage of a two-stage Pokémon and a Normal type. Suffice it to say, Minccino has no place as a raid attacker.

Minccino PvP Analysis

🧸 Little Cup

Minccino is a first-stage Pokémon with a max CP of 986. As such, Minccino has no place in any of the three main metas. As for the 500 CP Little Cup format, it isn’t a top performer by any means. It’s quite frail and doesn’t reach its charged attacks quickly. However, it does have Charm as a fast attack, which can deal a lot of damage. So, you could try it out during the few moments when Little Cup is available, and maybe it could end up being a valuable asset since it can win against meta picks like Deino and Vullaby.
