Weezing Black 2 & White 2 Guide
In Black 2 & White 2, Weezing looks average on paper at 490 BST. But Levitate is why it sees play. Build around that and it pulls its weight. C-Tier on our tier list. Will O Wisp with Black Sludge is the standard set.

Weezing is a mixed attacker with base 90 Attack and 85 Sp. Atk. Enough bulk to take a hit or two, too. Speed tells the real story. At base 60 Speed, it won't be moving first often.
For Black 2 & White 2, the core moveset is Will O Wisp, Sludge Bomb, Fire Blast, and Painsplit. Will O Wisp leads at 0% usage. This set covers the balanced role with a mix of damage and utility.
