Pokemon GO players have access to a special event called Oddish Research Day, which you can enjoy on Sunday, September 17, 2023, from 2 pm to 5 pm local time. If you have already finished playing this event, you might be wondering what to do with the Oddishes you caught from the Field Research Tasks.

Oddish has two evolutionary lines, giving it two final evolutions: Vileplume and Bellossom. You will get the former if the creature undergoes a normal evolution. However, if you evolve your Oddish with a Sun Stone, it will result in a Bellossom.

In this article, we will look at all the moves of Bellossom. We will also walk you through the best moveset, team, and counters for this special evolution of Oddish in Pokemon GO.

Is Bellossom good in Pokemon GO PvE?

Best PvP moveset for Bellossom in Pokemon GO

While both Razor Leaf and Bullet Seed are equally good for Bellossom when it comes to the Fast move, it comes down to what you need on your build.

Razor Leaf does a lot of damage but is poor at energy generation, while Bullet Seed builds up energy faster at the cost of the DPS.

Leaf Blade along with Dazzling Gleam are the best Charged moves for this critter. The former is one of the best Charged moves in the game. Low energy cost paired with high damage output makes it a deadly weapon in your arsenal.


Is Bellossom good in Pokemon GO PvP?

Bellossom comes with a lot of weaknesses, but access to Leaf Blade and high energy-generating Fast moves will help you bait out shields from your enemies. If you use it as a lead, it will prove to be useful for the remaining two creatures in your team, provided you manage to bait a shield from your enemy in the initial phase of the game.

Bellossom might be contested by the likes of Tropius and Venusaur for the Grass-type slot and might be overthrown on occasion, as the latter two perform better and offer more elemental typing coverage.
