Strategy Overview

Blitzle is quite the oddball in Little Cup. It has high Speed, but unfortunately, it falls short of the 19 Speed benchmark. It has decent Attack and Special Attack, but doesn't have a great movepool despite having access to a priority attack. Also, unfortunately, it will usually have a surefire counter depending on the Hidden Power that it's running. Its low defenses open it up to a multitude of attacks, and a super effective Earthquake will usually be enough to OHKO Blitzle. Overall, it's a decent Pokemon that could have been great if it had more moves to work with.
