Strategy Overview

Chimecho has never been the best choice when it comes to choosing a Psychic-type for a team. It is an average Pokemon with average stats and a terrible defensive typing for a Pokemon that was designed to support its fellow fighters. What it does have, however, is a great support movepool, distinguishing it from its fellow Psychic-types; most notably, access to Wish and Heal Bell allow it to pass on health boosts and clear status with relative ease. It may not be the best choice for your team, but when played right, Chimecho can still make a splash in the lower tiers.
