Alright, guys, so I’ve been playing a ton of Pokemon Go lately, trying to optimize my teams, you know? And I got stuck on this one question: Vileplume or Bellossom? They’re both Grass/Poison types, so I figured, let’s dive in and figure this out once and for all. I started out just looking at their stats.
I started to look at the base * seemed pretty similar.
My Experiment
So, I decided the best way to figure this out was to, well, use them! I powered up both my Vileplume and my Bellossom as much as I could. I made sure that they have the same or similar CP * I just started battling.
- I started with Gym battles. Throwing them against whatever random Pokemon were sitting in local Gyms.
- I took some notes the performance of the two pokemons.
- After that, I tried some Team Rocket battles. You know, those Grunts with the Shadow Pokemon.
- And Finally, I did some raids.
I used Vileplume in like, 10 Gym battles, 5 Rocket battles, and 2 raids. Same thing with Bellossom. I tried to keep it pretty even.I was switching them in and out, paying attention to how much damage they were taking, how fast they were charging their moves and the type of the enemies.
The Results
Honestly after the experiment, there wasn’t a super clear winner.I felt that both pokemons have simiar performance.
At the end, choosing a pokemon for battle,I think I will choose according to the battle situation.
So, that’s my little experiment! Hope this helps someone out there who’s also stuck deciding between Vileplume and Bellossom. It’s a tough call, I used a lots of stardust, and now I have the conclusion.
