Grafaiai PvE Analysis

Recommended moves

⚔️ Raids

Grafaiai is a Poison and Normal type Pokémon. There’s no point in using Normal-type attacks in raids, as no Pokémon are weak to them. Grafaiai is best used as a Poison-type raid attacker, where it isn’t a top performer but can be used in a pinch.
Grafaiai’s best move combination is Poison Jab and Sludge Bomb. As a Poison-type raid attacker, Grafaiai is strong against Grass and Fairy type Pokémon.

Grafaiai PvP Analysis

Recommended moves

🔵 Great League

Grafaiai is a very frail Pokémon in the Great League, making it an unideal candidate for this league.

🟡 Ultra League

Grafaiai has a bit more bulk in this league. While it’s not good enough to be a main meta Pokémon, it can be a decent spice pick with a move combination of Mud Slap, the spammy Poison Fang, and Sludge Bomb. However, it requires a lot of investment to make it viable for the Ultra League, so it might not be worth using it as a spice pick.

🟣 Master League

Grafaiai is far too weak for the legendary Pokémon-dominated Master League.
