Comfey Best Moveset
Fairy at 82 Sp. Atk and 100 Speed with AbilityTriage giving +3 priority to all healing moves. MoveDraining Kiss at +3 priority heals while dealing Fairy TermStab damage before any other priority. Held ItemLife Orb with NatureModest pushes the healing-offense cycle. The moveset fires priority healing attacks that sustain it through any exchange. B-Tier through Triage utility.
Triage gave +3 priority to healing moves in Gen VII (Sun & Moon). Draining Kiss healed Comfey before almost anything could move. Priority healing was unique and annoying to face.
Special Tank Moveset
- Draining Kiss
- Calm Mind
- Giga Drain
- Hidden Power Fire
Recommended Teammates
Dropped in Gen VIII (Sword & Shield). Triage Draining Kiss still healed first, but 52 offenses couldn't deal enough damage to matter. Priority healing that barely scratched opponents.
Special Tank Moveset
- Draining Kiss
- Stored Power
- Synthesis
- Growth
Recommended Teammates
Rose between tiers in Gen IX (Scarlet & Violet). Calm Mind boosted the damage, and Triage priority meant Comfey healed faster than opponents could deal damage. The slow-burn sweeper.

Nothing fancy in Comfey's spread. It leans special with Sp. Def out front. And you'll get 2 Sp. Def EVs per KO for it. Follows a fast 800K XP curve.
These Pokémon smell very nice. All Comfey wear different flowers, so each of these Pokémon has its own individual scent.
Comfey Guide
Comfey looks average on paper at 485 BST. But Natural Cure is why it sees play. Build around that and it pulls its weight. C-Tier pivot on our tier list.
Comfey gets Natural Cure, Flower Veil, and Triage. But Natural Cure is the one that matters. It's the centerpiece of every viable set. Build around that.
Comfey is a special attacker with base 82 Sp. Atk. Enough bulk to take a hit or two, too. Speed tells the real story. Base 100 Speed lets it outrun most of the field. Fits the pivot role.
The core moveset is Drainingkiss, Calm Mind, Storedpower, and Giga Drain. Drainingkiss leads at 0% usage. This set covers the pivot role with a mix of damage and utility.
Game Availability
