      Little CupLittle Cup

      Recommended moves

      Foongus is a noticeable Pokémon in the Little Cup, as the powerful combination of Astonish, Body Slam, and Grass Knot makes it viable.

      However, Astonish and Body Slam (its most threatening moves) lack STAB. Also, Foongus’ low Attack and Defense stats don’t do it any favors. 🙁

      Beyond the Little Cup, Foongus has zero usage in other formats.
