Strategy Overview

While its base stats might suggest otherwise, Vibrava's bulk and typing let it check certain popular Pokemon, such as Electric- and Fire-types. Its access to Defog and U-turn lets it function as a decent entry hazard remover for offensive and defensive teams alike. It has a resistance to Stealth Rock and an immunity to Spikes and Toxic Spikes, giving it a niche over other hazard removers such as Pelipper and Swanna. It also has reliable recovery in Roost. However, Vibrava is still a very passive Pokemon that is easily set up on and otherwise taken advantage of. Its extremely low uninvested physical bulk also means that it has trouble taking hits from a lot of common Pokemon in the PU metagame.
