PVE Offensive Moves Explanation

  • Magical Leaf is ideal for Shadow Victreebel’s role as Water and Rock-type slayer.

  • Razor Leaf is okay, but it definitely falls behind Magical Leaf.

  • Solar Beam and Leaf Blade are both stellar charge moves. Solar Beam has higher DPS, but Leaf Blade performs better in practice.

  • Acid can be paired with Sludge Bomb to take on Fairy-types; it’s the best Poison-type moveset in the game.
  • Leaf Tornado and Acid Spray perform poorly in gyms and raids.

PVE Defensive Moves Explanation

  • Magical Leaf is Shadow Victreebel's best Fast Move on defense. It's basically a better version of Razor Leaf, and is better than Acid even if resisted.

  • Despite having the same type as Shadow Victreebel's Fast Move, Leaf Blade is arguably the best Charged Move choice, as it comes out frequently and is hard to dodge.

  • Sludge Bomb is also worth considering, as it has different coverage and decent parameters on defense.

  • Leaf Tornado, Acid Spray, and Solar Beam all fall behind on defense.

PVE Overview

Shadow Victreebel is a solid attacker with both of types, sporting good offensive presence on both sides of the spectrum. That said, its Grass Type role is more potent and useful generally speaking, and it is definitely out-classed in that area.

PvP Moveset Explanation

Magical Leaf + Leaf Blade and Sludge Bomb

Magical Leaf is a great move in PvP thanks to its above average energy generation and damage output alike, making it a strong all-around pick that tends to out-pace Razor leaf's DPS-centric stat-line. Leaf Blade, then, pairs with it fantastically due to its low energy cost. Sludge Bomb is a strong Poison-type move that can deal a ton of damage if unshielded. Acid Spray, on the other hand, makes the bet that your opponent is going to shield no matter what and reduces their defense significantly. This either allows Shadow Victreebel to hit even harderor at least sets up a better farm for your next Pokémon.

PvP Rating Explanation

Great League: 4 / 5

If you've ever encountered a Shadow Victreebel in Go Battle League, then you know that its entire job is to cut everything in the world down using nothing but leaves. it won't last long, but it has the strongest viable fast move spam in the game. 

Ultra League: 1.5 / 5

While the Shadow Boost works well in Great League, Ultra League is where that loss of defense genuinely hurts. It can pull the same role as its non-shadow forme, but its performance does tend to suffer given the bulk that the Ultra League tends to demand.

Master League: 0 / 5

Victreebel’s low CP cap prevents it from being competitive in Master League.
