Strategy Overview
-
Breloom's viability has sharply decreased since VGC 2015.
-
Electric and Misty Terrain both block Spore, and Breloom is arguably outclassed by Tapu Bulu and Kartana as a Grass-type physical attacker.
-
Technician is still a fantastic ability on Breloom, powering up many of its main attacking moves such as Bullet Seed, Mach Punch, and Rock Tomb.
-
Breloom still has a niche as the fastest Spore user outside of Smeargle, and the only Pokemon that can both put enemies to sleep and hit hard.
-
Breloom requires both Tailwind from its team and denial of opposing speed control to fully function.
