Strategy Overview
Cherrim is an atrocious Sunny Day sweeper, as it possesses a terrible movepool and mediocre stats bar its average Speed tier, but that does not save it by far. It is easily walled even if it manages to get boosted up, leaving it outclassed by other physical Sunny Day sweepers such as Leafeon, Shiftry, and Sawsbuck. However, it is even more outclassed by Bellossom and Victreebel if running a special set, which is what forces it to go physical with its one mediocre niche being Flower Gift. This notably leaves Cherrim walled by virtually most of the tier.
