Clodsire's Tier Ranking & Meta Analysis

Read meta analysis

Clodsire PvE Analysis

Recommended moves

Clodsire is a Poison and Ground type Pokémon with a max CP of 2207. It is not useful for PvE, even with its best moveset of Mud Shot and Sludge Bomb.

⚔️ Raids

There are a huge number of Ground types that are much better to use than Clodsire, and Poison types don’t have much usage in the raid meta.

🛡️ Gyms

Clodsire makes for a beefy gym defender thanks to its whopping 277 Stamina stat!

Clodsire PvP Analysis

Recommended moves

Clodsire’s best moveset for PvP is Poison Sting, Sludge Bomb, and Earthquake. It is one of the absolute top-tier Pokémon for PvP, and well worth investing in.

🔵 Great League

Clodsire is as good as it gets in Great League! It is extremely bulky, as well as having access to spammy moves, making it truly deadly.

🟡 Ultra League

Clodsire is on the small side for Ultra League, so it requires a perfect IV and maxed-out XL Candy, making it a costly investment. It picks up wins over Talonflame, Clefable, and Lickilicky, but loses to Swampert, Giratina Altered, Guzzlord, and more.

🟣 Master League

Clodsire might be a star of Great League, but it just doesn’t get big enough to compete in Master League.
