Strategy Overview

This pretty flower has been blessed with a great Special Attack stat, two useful abilities in Chlorophyll and Solar Power, and a pretty good movepool to take advantage of. Although she seems great at first glance, you'll notice her poor Speed and defensive stats make it difficult for her to sweep and leaves her vulnerable to priority moves. Her lack of useful supporting moves is also a disappointment; her support movepool is so shallow, she is even forced to use the horribly unreliable Grass Whistle instead of Sleep Powder. With the correct teammates and/or field effects, Sunflora is a decent offensive Pokemon; just play it safe, she's as delicate as a rose.
