Nickit's Tier Ranking & Meta Analysis

Read meta analysis

Nickit PvE Analysis

Nickit is a little red fox 🦊 whose ATK and DEF don't even go beyond 100. Even if it had higher stats, it doesn't have the moveset required to be viable in the PvE meta. 🫠

Nickit PvP Analysis

🧸 Little Cup

Nickit has access to a PvP-friendly moveset that gives it viability in the Little Cup. Quick Attack gives it tremendous energy gains, making it sync really well with Night Slash. In addition, Play Rough gives it great coverage. What holds it back from true glory is its low DEF.

Still, its plus points help it beat major Little Cup threats like Bronzor, Seel, Vullaby, Drifloon, and Wooper. You're surely going to have fun using Nickit’s razor-sharp moveset. 😄

💎 Nickit's best moveset for the Little Cup is Quick Attack, Night Slash, and Play Rough.

Nickit is too weak for any other PvP format.
