Litleo's Tier Ranking & Meta Analysis

Read meta analysis

Litleo PvE Analysis

Recommended moves

⚔️ Raids

Litleo is a little Fire, Normal lion cub who’s a bundle of cuteness. Unfortunately, little lion king is a Pokémon that hasn't reached its final evolutionary stage, and as such, underperforms compared to other Pokémon in its type category.

Litleo PvP Analysis

Recommended moves

🧸 Little Cup

Litleo can be an interesting pick in the Little Cup as it has a choice between doing heavy damage with its fast attack or being spammier with its charged attack. Its type combination is solid as well, and makes it strong against some big meta threats such as Cottonee and Bronzor. On the other hand, it gets decimated by the powerful Water types in this league.

🔵 Great League

With a max CP of 1611, Litleo is certainly usable in the Great League. However, usable does not mean good. Fire types need to have something special to work well in this league, since there are many types Fire-types are weak to in this league, and Litleo just doesn’t have it.
