Nymble's Tier Ranking & Meta Analysis

Read meta analysis

Nymble PvE Analysis

Nymble is literally a little bug with a lot of spirit, but nimble-minded trainers shouldn't use little Nymble in PvE bouts. 🦗

Wait, is this a tongue twister? 😜 Nonetheless, Nymble is not built for the PvE meta due to its extremely low stats.

⚔️ Raids & 🛡️ Gyms

Nymble PvP Analysis

💎 Nymble's best moveset for PvP is Bug Bite, X-Scissor, and Trailblaze.

🧸 Little Cup

Bug-type coverage is never really valuable, but Nymble also packs the handy Grass-type Charged Move Trailblaze, which increases its ATK stat on each use. 📈

This helps it beat bigshots like Deino, Vullaby, Shadow Rhyhorn, Shadow Cubone, and Wynaut. Outside these wins, Nymble’s poor stats play spoilsport and limit its viability. 😕

Nymble is too weak for the Great, Ultra, and Master League.
