There are several Eevee evolutions to choose from in Pokémon Go. When you evolve an Eevee, it becomes a fixed type. For Leafeon, the Grass-type, it's one of the decent choices you can use in PvE encounters and raids. But you want to make sure you teach him the best moveset so he can do the most damage in battles. This guide details the best moveset for Leafeon.
Leafeon is a Grass-type Pokémon. It will be weak beetle, Fire, Flying, Ice, and Poison-type attacks, but it is resistant to Water, Ground, Grass, and Electric-type moves. While it's one of the more vulnerable Eevee evolutions, you'll mostly want to use it against Team Rocket members or low-level raids.
These are all the moves Leafeon can learn.
Quick moves
- Bullet Seed (Grass Type) - 5 damage and 4,3 energy per turn (3 damage per turn) - 2 turns
- Quick Attack (Normal Type) - 5 damage and 3,5 energy per turn (2,5 damage per turn) - 2 turns
- Razor Leaf (Grass type) - 10 damage and 2 energy per turn (5 damage per turn) - 2 turns
Moves loaded
- Energy Ball (grass type) - 90 damage and 55 energy (10% chance to lower an opponent's defense by one rank)
- Last Resort (normal type) - 90 damage and 55 energy
- Leaf Blade (grass type) - 70 damage and 35 energy
- Sunbeam (grass type) - 150 damage and 80 energy
When it comes to picking Leafeon's quick move, you want to go with the seed of the bullet. Of the choices, the bullet side provides the best amount of energy for Leafeon during a battle. The Razor Leaf deals a decent amount of damage each turn, but generates less than half the same energy. So it's best to collect bullet seeds and rely on Leafeon's charged moves to make up for the damage difference.
For loaded moves, you have a few options for Grass-type moves. But the best will be the leaf blade. With Bullet Seed as a quick move, Leafeon can expect to use the Leaf Blade quite often during an encounter, and it does an incredible amount of damage. When it comes to second choice, you want to add some variety to Leafeon's attack type and teach him as a last resort.
The best move set for Leafeon is the fast moving bullet seed and last resort loaded moves and the leaf blade.
