Strategy Overview

Sunflora is a bad Pokemon in NU. It is too slow to sweep even with a Speed boost from Chlorophyll, and to make matters worse, its frailty means it would hardly have a chance to grab a KO without getting KOed first. With other Chlorophyll sweepers in the tier, such as Victreebel and Exeggutor, that are speedier and more powerful than it, Sunflora finds its only niche as a suicide sun setter than can threaten opponents in the process. However, this set is very difficult to pull off and it is advisable to stick to other options instead.
