Greavard's Tier Ranking & Meta Analysis

Greavard PvE Analysis

⚔️ Raids

Greavard is the first of a two-stage Ghost-type evolutionary line. Like with most Pokémon that haven’t reached the final stage in their evolutionary line, Greavard has a low max CP and low stats. So it’s not really worth using as a raid attacker.

Greavard PvP Analysis

🧸 Little Cup

Greavard is too weak for any of the three main leagues; however, it is actually a fantastic Pokémon for the Little Cup format. It has decent stats for the Little Cup, and it's strong against certain meta threats such as Bronzor, Shelmet, and Wynaut. However, it is also weak to other popular picks such as Deino and Ducklett.
