Salandit's Tier Ranking & Meta Analysis

Read meta analysis

Salandit PvE Analysis

The Poison/Fire-type Salandit is quite a rare species in Pokémon GO, with only the female being able to evolve. However, regardless of the gender, a Salandit is a weak Pokémon, bringing nothing of note to Raids and Gyms.

Salandit PvP Analysis

Recommended moves

🧸 Little Cup

Poison and Fire are both good offensive types in PvP, and Salandit salvages these traits by beating a large number of threats, including Grass types like Bulbasaur, Cottonee, and Abomasnow, Ice types like Alolan Sandshrew and Swinub, Fairies like Igglybuff and Wigglytuff, Dark types like Umbreon, Vullaby, and Scrafty, Skarmory, Shelmet, Wynaut, Vigoroth, and Chansey. 👀

This is quite a fine list of wins, cementing Salandit as a legitimate threat in the Little Cup. Be wary of its double weakness to Ground attacks, as well as Psychic, Rock, and Water attacks.

With a max CP of only 1268, Salandit doesn't work out in any other PvP League.

💎 The best PvP moves for Salandit are Ember, Poison Fang and Flamethrower.
