Stats & Training
Nothing fancy in Snubbull's spread. It leans physical with Attack out front. And you'll get 1 Attack EV per KO for it. Follows a fast 800K XP curve.
It grows close to others easily and is also easily spoiled. The disparity between its face and its actions makes many young people wild about it.
In contrast to its appearance, it’s quite timid. When playing with other puppy Pokémon, it sometimes gets bullied.
Snubbull Weakness
Poison and Steel moves hit Snubbull for super-effective damage. The upside? Dragon-type moves can't touch it at all. Snubbull's Fairy typing only leaves 2 gaps to cover.
