Strategy Overview

For such a little bug, Ledyba has a great movepool. Encore, dual screens, Baton Pass, and two boosting moves means Ledyba can be a great supporter. It also isn't too shabby on the offensive, even with its abysmal Attack and average Special Attack. Ledyba's Bug / Flying typing and average Speed are what really hurt it. However, if you can get by that, Ledyba is a fun choice in Little Cup and can certainly live up to the name of the Five Star Pokemon.
