Strategy Overview

Unlike its fierce competitors such as Bellsprout, Bulbasaur, and Deerling, Seedot lacks usable offensive stats, a secondary STAB, and even a decent Speed tier, with only Explosion to set it apart from other Chlorophyll attackers. Sun hyper offense teams are also exceedingly rare due to the lack of an auto-setter and the playstyle's rough matchup versus the majority of teams.
