      PvE AnalysisPvE Analysis

      With subpar stats and a very low max CP, Helioptile is absolutely not suitable for PvE battles like ⚔️ Raids and 🛡️ Gyms.

      PvP AnalysisPvP Analysis

      🧸 Little Cup

      Helioptile is extremely fragile, so much that it only manages a few wins, that too against Pokémon weak to Electric attacks. This makes it unattractive for Little League play. 👎

      Helioptile’s max CP is too low for any other PvP League.
