Breeding's the move. After You and Charm give Bellossom options it can't learn any other way, and Normal and Dark coverage and more already covers a decent range on top of Leaf Storm and Solar Beam. The egg moves push it further.

Bellossom Black 2 & White 2 Guide
In Black 2 & White 2, Bellossom looks average on paper at 480 BST. But Chlorophyll is why it sees play. Build around that and it pulls its weight. C-Tier support on our tier list. Synthesis with Leftovers is the standard set.
Bellossom gets Chlorophyll and Healer. But Chlorophyll is the one that matters. It's the centerpiece of every viable set. Build around that.
Bellossom is a special attacker with base 90 Sp. Atk. Enough bulk to take a hit or two, too. Speed tells the real story. Base 50 Speed is low. Priority moves or Trick Room are the way to go. Fits the support role.
For Black 2 & White 2, the core moveset is Synthesis, Leech Seed, Solarbeam, and Petaldance. Synthesis leads at 0% usage. This set covers the support role with a mix of damage and utility.
Game Availability
Since Gold & Silver, Bellossom has been in 18 games. Requiring an item-based evolution to obtain means it's consistently available but requires more effort than simply catching it in the wild.
