Bellossom's stats are solid on their own, but Chlorophyll is what pushes it over the line. It doubles its Speed in sun. 5 type weaknesses to keep in mind. Known as the Flower Pokemon. Flexible enough to run physical or special sets.

Bellossom's built to absorb hits, not race for knockouts. Balanced defenses with Sp. Def doing the heavy lifting. And the 1.06M XP medium-slow curve means it won't take forever to bring up, worth 3 Sp. Def EVs.

  • Bellossom looks average on paper at 490 BST. But Chlorophyll is why it sees play — build around that and it pulls its weight. D-Tier on our tier list.

  • Bellossom's biggest threats include Charizard (Fire), Cloyster (Ice), and Nidoking (Poison), all carrying super-effective STAB moves. Flying and Bug-type attackers are also a problem. With 5 weakness types, most competitive teams carry at least one counter.

  • Gloom evolves into Bellossom using a Sun Stone. Bellossom is the final evolution in a 4-stage line starting from Oddish. At 490 BST, it's got solid stats to work with.

  • 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 mixed attacker — base 80 Attack and 90 Sp. Atk. Enough bulk to take a hit or two, too. But the speed tells the real story — base 50 Speed is low. Priority moves or Trick Room are the way to go.

  • Bellossom appears in 18 games, including Gold & Silver, Crystal, and Ruby & Sapphire.

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.
