Strategy Overview

Venonat offers no real competitive value and is outclassed by Foongus or Morelull. Its biggest draw is a 4x resistance to Fighting-type attacks, which can be quite useful with Fighting-types playing such a big role in Little Cup. It also has access to Compound Eyes and Sleep Powder, which lends some nice support, although Foongus or Morelull would probably be a better choice overall.
