Nothing about Tsareena screams competitive powerhouse, and that's fine. Grass means 5 type weaknesses to keep in mind. Known as the Fruit Pokemon. The stat spread favors raw physical power.

Attack and Defense carry most of Tsareena's stat budget. Sp. Atk's the obvious dump stat. Tough to catch and yields 3 Attack EVs. Follows a 1.06M XP medium-slow curve.

Pokedex Entries

This feared Pokémon has long, slender legs and a cruel heart. It shows no mercy as it stomps on its opponents.

Sword

A kick from the hardened tips of this Pokémon’s legs leaves a wound in the opponent’s body and soul that will never heal.

Shield

Tsareena Weakness

Fragile

Tsareena's Grass typing leaves it vulnerable to Fire, Ice, Poison, Flying, and Bug moves. 4 resistances help offset the weaknesses. 5 weaknesses means you'll want teammates that can handle the coverage gaps.

Getting Tsareena requires knowing a specific move, not just grinding levels. The chain starts at Bounsweet. Breed this form to get Bounsweet eggs (average hatch time). Attack grew the most through evolution (+90 over Bounsweet), and Tsareena peaks at 510 total stats.

Wide Lens and Queenlymajesty form the backbone. Tsareena invests a spread EV build EVs to play its physical attacker role properly, and Adamant nature pushes Attack higher. Tripleaxel handles the heavy lifting on offense. The remaining moves rounds it out.

    or evolve from Bounsweet (Step 1)
  3. Tsareena
    Step 3Tsareena
  • We rate Tsareena B-Tier — a solid choice for the right team. At 510 BST, it fits the wallbreaker role. Base 120 Attack stands out.

  • Watch for Infernape (Fire), Kyurem (Ice), and Roserade (Poison) when using Tsareena. They all hit it super-effectively with STAB. Flying and Bug-type attackers are also a problem. With 5 weakness types, most competitive teams carry at least one counter.

  • Steenee evolves into Tsareena after learning Stomp. Tsareena is the final evolution in a 3-stage line starting from Bounsweet. At 510 BST, it's got solid stats to work with.

  • Leaf Guard protects against major status ailments during strong sunlight — that's the one you want on Tsareena. Sweet Veil is the hidden ability. Niche, but it has its uses. Queenly Majesty works too if your team needs something different.

  • Base 72 Speed is workable — faster than some, slower than many. On offense, Tsareena is a physical attacker with base 120 Attack. Defensively? Enough bulk to take a hit or two. Best used as a wallbreaker.

  • Tsareena can be found in Scarlet & Violet, Sword & Shield, Sun & Moon, and Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon.

Tsareena joined the series in Sun & Moon and has been available in 4 titles so far. With 3 generations of appearances, it's established itself despite the later start.
