Preferred Moveset: Vine Whip, Frenzy Plant & Thunder Punch / Superpower

🔵 Great League

Chesnaught is very decent in the Great League, with a flexible and fast-charging moveset and overall decent bulk. It does face stiff competition from Serperior and Jumpluff in terms of Grass-type picks, due to their superior bulk. However, in the right team composition, Chesnaught can be deadly.

🟡 Ultra League

Chesnaught is an ok pick for the Ultra League. Virizion is typically preferred due to its better pacing and Fighting-type coverage, but Chesnaught can perform well against the various Water types in the meta. Overall, the Ultra League meta isn’t super kind to Grass types, so Chesnaught doesn’t see as much play as you might expect.

🟣 Master League

Chesnaught is a decent pick in the Master Premier meta as a good counter to the numerous Water and Ground types that dominate the format. However, it struggles against the Dragons and Flyers in the open Master League meta—stick to the Premier format.
