      PvE AnalysisPvE Analysis

      Recommended moves

      Bouffalant is the New York-based regional catch in Pokémon GO, but being a Normal-type, it doesn’t enjoy super-effective coverage, and therefore, is not worth running in PvE. 🥲

      Its Attack stat is pretty low, so even a Normal-type weather boost doesn’t make a difference. 😶‍🌫️

      PvP AnalysisPvP Analysis

      Recommended moves

      💥 The best PvP moveset for Bouffalant is Mud Shot, Stomp, and Megahorn.

      🔵 Great League

      • Hardly gets any wins because of its weird moveset that lacks synergy and STAB.
      • Not worth the effort. 👎

      🟡 Ultra League

      • The same issue again…
      • Bouffalant can’t compete in PvP battles due to a poor moveset. 🥴

      🟣 Master League
