Learn how to use Victreebel and its Mega in the Pokemon Legends Z-A competitive scene with information about its moveset and nature.
Victreebel is a Grass/Poison type first introduced in Generation I. While a decent mixed attacker, it falls short compared to similar Grass/Poison types. It lacks the power of Venusaur or the defensive utility of Vileplume. However, in Legends Z-A, it got a new Mega Evolution, which is one of the earliest to be announced. Here we breakdown how to use Victreebel to its full potential.
Best Victreebel Moveset in Pokemon Legends Z-A
These are the moves you want to use on your Victreebel, especially if you are looking to Mega Evolve it later.
- Giga Drain
- Knock Off
- Toxic
- Sludge Bomb
Victreebel has a decent amount of utility moves that let it help its allies. Especially after Mega Evolution, its bulk improves to the point where it can tank hits better. This makes it a decent support.
Giga Drain will be Victreebel’s main Grass STAB attack, both dealing damage and healing itself at the same time. The move can be taught to it with TM042, which is given to the player by Mable after reaching Level 12 on her Research Reward list. Knock Off is a useful utility move it learns at Level 19 to deal super effective damage to Psychic and Ghost types and remove the opponent’s held item (it does not remove Mega Stones).
TM007 for Toxic can be found in Bleu District and can slowly chip away at the opponent’s HP. Finally, Sludge Bomb is a powerful Poison-type STAB that Victreebel learns upon evolving from Weepinbell. You can get the Victreebelite after defeating the Rogue Mega Victreebel in the mission “A Rogue Mega Victreebel.”
Best Victreebel Nature in Pokemon Legends Z-A
Using a Quiet (+Spa, -Spe) nature should work well for Mega Victreebel. This lets it utilize its bulk without compromising either of its offenses. You can buy a Quiet Mint from the vendor at Rogue Sector 1.
Victreebel Stats and Location
You can catch a Bellsprout in Legends Z-A as early as Wild Zone 5. It can also be caught in Wild Zone 10, Bleu District, Jaune District, Magenta District, Rouge District, and Vert District. Once you evolve Bellsprout into Weepinbell, immediately evolve it into a Victreebel with a Leaf Stone from the Stone Emporium for $3,000.
