Best Grass Type Pokémon in Pokémon Legends: Arceus

While the Mythical Pokémon Shaymin would be at the top of this list for its stats alone, Mythical Pokémon are not easy to get ahold of, and sometimes players need a strong Grass-type attacker quickly. Tangrowth is a fearsome Grass-type Pokémon and can be the base of most Pokémon teams.

Tangrowth

Tangrowth's stats make it a powerhouse in battle. Its special defense stat is a bit low, but it makes up for it by having great attack and defense stats and a fantastic special attack stat of 110. Tangrowth is a sole Grass-type Pokémon and has no 4x weaknesses to any move types.

Other strong Grass Type Pokémon in Pokémon Legends: Arceus

Players will have no lack of options for Grass-type Pokémon in Pokémon Legends: Arceus. The game's Grass-type starter, Hisuian Decidueye, is a great Pokémon and stands as one of the best Grass-type in the game. Leafeon and Torterra, a starter Pokémon from Generation 4, also have decent stats. Roserade, Abomasnow, and Hisuian Electrode are also decent choices for players who quickly need some Grass-type moves.

Hisuian Decidueye

Hisuian Decidueye is a Fighting and Grass dual-type Pokémon. This typing isn't bad by any means, though it does result in Decidueye having a 4x weakness to Flying-type damage. It does compensate a bit for this by having a great list of resistances and a great attack and special attack stat.

• Type: Grass and Fighting
• Stat Total: 530
  • HP: 88
  • Attack: 112
  • Special Attack: 95
  • Defense: 80
  • Special Defense: 95
  • Speed: 60

Torterra

Torterra is a Ground and Grass-type Pokémon with a great attack stat, decent defense, and special attack. Torterra isn't the best Grass-type Pokémon but is a nice choice if players are in a bind. It does have a 4x weakness to Ice-type damage but an immunity to Electric-type damage.

• Type: Grass and Ground
• Stat Total: 525
  • HP: 95
  • Attack: 109

Leafeon

Leafeon has always been a fan favorite alongside its fellow Eevee evolutions. This Grass-type Pokémon has a great attack and defense stat but can fall flat in some other areas, like its HP and special defense. Overall, this Pokémon is a safe choice for players needing a good Grass-type attacker.
