Blipbug's Tier Ranking & Meta Analysis

Read meta analysis

Blipbug PvE Analysis

Blipbug has a max CP of only 405 and terrible stats. This Pokémon should never be in line with PvE combat.

Blipbug PvP Analysis

It's worth stressing once again that Blipbug's max CP is a meager 405, meaning it's not even adequate for the Little Cup.

Moreover, it only has Struggle Bug as its sole Charged Move.

Blipbug is only meant to be a Pokédex addition.
