Victreebel PvE Analysis

Recommended moves

⚔️ Raids – Victreebel is a fully evolved Poison and Grass-type Pokémon. However, when it comes to Raids, Victreebel is better suited as a Poison-type raid attacker. Running Acid and Sludge Bomb, Victreebel is strong against Grass and Fairy-type Pokémon. However, keep in mind that there are better options for raids, and Shadow Victreebel outperforms its regular form both as a Grass-type and Poison-type raid attacker.

Victreebel PvP Analysis

Recommended moves

🔵 Great League – Victreebel is quite possibly one of the most consistent “spicy” Pokémon for the Great League. It’s a frail Grass and Poison-type with high Attack. Traditionally, Victreebel used this high Attack to deal immense Fast Attack damage with Razor Leaf. However, this has shifted a bit with Victreebel now having access to Magical Leaf as a legacy move. Magical Leaf generates energy much faster than Razor Leaf, allowing Victreebel to pair it with Leaf Blade for a spammy playstyle. Overall, Victreebel can be devastating against any Pokémon weak to Grass-type attacks and can hold its own neutrally against Pokémon like Dunsparce.

🟡 Ultra League – The same strategy applies in the Ultra League, but with a big caveat: Victreebel is an XL Pokémon, requiring substantial XL Candy investment to be viable. For a “spicy” Pokémon, such a significant investment might not be worth it unless you have ample resources.

🟣 Master League – With a max CP of 2748 and a max base stat total around 400, Victreebel is not strong enough for the Master League.
