Yamper in the meta
PvE Analysis
Yamper is an adorable little pupper that's extremely popular among Pokémon fans. However, its tremendous popularity doesn't translate to meta relevance in PvE. Play fetch with it but not Raids or Gym battles. 🙂
PvP Analysis
🧸 Little Cup
Yamper is an awkward one in PvP. On one hand (paw), it has good bulk for the League and only one weakness (Ground) but its offensive potential is limited not only by its low ATK but also the moveset. Spark’s energy gains are okayish and its main attack, Thunder, is quite expensive at 60 energy. As such, Yamper has to rely on Crunch and it does so quite well, taking out threats such as Wynaut, Seel, Vullaby, Ducklett, and Skarmory.
Overall, while it doesn't impact the meta too much, there aren't too many prominent Electric types in the Little Cup, giving Yamper some viability. ⚡
Yamper’s stats are too low for any other PvP League.
💎 The best PvP moves for Yamper are Spark, Crunch and Thunder.
