Summary

• Flower Pokemon are not just pretty faces; they possess formidable battle skills that can surprise any opponent.
• Unique abilities like Contrary and Natural Cure give flower Pokemon like Lurantis and Shaymin an edge on the battlefield.
• From the elegant Florges to the frog-like Venusaur, flower Pokemon offer a diverse and powerful lineup for any trainer.

Pokemon can be categorized and grouped in a variety of different ways that are only limited by the imagination. They can be sorted by Type, by Egg Group, by Generation, by Ability, or by what moves they can learn. But perhaps there's one category that is consistently updated every generation but often ignored, and this category would be flower Pokemon.

Whether growing cotton upon their head or a beautiful blossom, flower Pokemon are more than just their looks; these flowers can kill, too. This article will attempt to arrange a beautiful bouquet of the strongest flower Pokemon out there, which is s💎ure to impress any trainer.

Updated March 24, 2024 by William Quick: As we eagerly await the release of the next entry of the very popular and well-received Pokemon Legends series, we have time to look back at all the Pokemon we still get to train. We've had Pokemon of all shapes and sizes, from tiny objects with eyes on them to those that are disturbingly too human. Since Grass-type Pokemon have been here since the beginning, many of them incorporate flowers into their designs, and these are the strongest ones.

13 Comfey

The Fairly Strong Accessory

Friendship bracelets are a sweet and simple way to show your affection for someone, so the designers over at the Pokemon Labs decided to turn them into a Pokemon called Comfey. Why Comfey would even need a Pokeball instead of just your wrist is a mystery, but it's more than capable of holding its own in a fight.

Despite its flowery appearance, Comfey is 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:a pure Fairy-type which can allow it to catch the unsuspecting trainer off-guard. It's surprisingly resilient, having high stats in Defense and Special Defense while also excelling in Speed. This allows it to support its teammates effectively in group battles or stall tricky opponents using moves like Sweet Kiss, Draining Kiss, Floral Healing, and Leech Seed along with abilities like Triage and Natural Cure to make it a tenacious healer.

12 Sunflora

The Solar-Powered Powerhouse

Imagine mastering a team of metal monsters designed to take tons of hits and dish out pure destruction, only for an opponent to throw a happy little Sunflower at you. Because of Sunflora's appearance and single-typing, many trainers tend not to take it too seriously... and that's one of the biggest mistakes they can make.

Overall, Sunflora has balanced stats but lacks Speed, which is compensated for by 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:its abilities of Chlorophyll and Early Bird to combat the immobilization of sleep. Where this sunny Pokemon shines is in its Special Attack score, which it can take full advantage of by learning Solar Beam, Petal Dance,♏ and Leaf Storm. It also learns the beneficial Sunny Day for Chlorophyll and the Special Attack-boosting🐻 ability of Solar Power.

11 Cradily

The Fossilized Flower Fiend

When it came to Gen 3, many thought that the fossil choice was a pretty obvious one: Take the Claw and get a scorpion dinosaur. But, the seemingly unpopular Cradily 🔯was not one to take this lying down and has proved itself in various battles to fit multiple strategies with its rocky plant structure.

While looking like a dinosaur itself, Cradily overall has a solid mix of tank-like and above-average stats, suffering mainly in Speed which is not surprising. It's a stubborn Pokemon that uses its Suction Cups ability to prevent it from being forced out and may even have the hidden power of Storm Drain to bait Water-types into boosting 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:its Special Attack. What's most surprising is the sheer variety of moves it learns, from Grass to Rock to Poison to Normal to even the damaging Water move Brine.

10 Lilligant

The Bubbly Flower Child

Generation 5 has a sizable arrangement of plant-based Pokemon, but none more elegant than Lilligant. Evolving from Petilil when exposed to a Sun Stone, Lilligant nowadays ranks much higher in aesthetics than it does in actual po൲wer, but it has good stats going for it (a base stat total of 480) and the move pool to be a setup sweeper.

Quiver Dance gives Lilliga💦nt some real value on the battlefield, but it ranks lower on the list due to the many threats it faces in current-day competitive play. Having Pokemon that can pr🌱operly cover Lilligant will enable it to unleash havoc on its opponents.

9 Bellossom

The Petal Dancing Partner

Pity the fool who underestimates Bellossom's battle power. This Pokemon has access to both Quiver Dance and Strength Sap, which no other Pokemon does. Strength Sap, a move that can be learned by 12 Pokemon in total, will restore Bellossom's HP by its opponent's Attack stat, while also lowering said opponent's Attack by one stage. Quiver Dance will raise Bellossom's Special Attack, Special Defense, and Speed by one stage. Both moves are valuable and allow Bellossom to be used in several different teams and strategies.

Unfortunately, Bellossom has its fair 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:share of weaknesses, being a pure Grass-type Pokemon, and possessing average stats before Quiver Dancing and other stat-🔯boosting moves. Bellossom runs the risk of being knocked out before getting any boosts set up but can achieve great things if given the right opportunity.

8 Lurantis

This Flower Bugs Opponents

Lurantis is quite an interesting Pokemon, but not only because of its unique design (most likely based on an Orchid Mantis and an Orchid flower combined). It can take advantage of not only its reasonable Defense stats, but also its access to moves such as Synthesis, Aromatherapy, and Defog. Its ability, Contrary, will reverse any stat changes done to the Pokemon, meaning an opponent attempting to lower Lurantis' Defense would increase its Defense instead.

Defog, often considered a useless HM Move from Generation 4, actually becomes Lurantis' greatest strength, clearing entry hazards such as Spikes. This is a Mantis you'll be praying to have around!

7 Eldegoss

A Puff Full Of Wisdom

One of the exciting aspects of a new Pokemon generation is seeing what flower Pokemon fans will be gifted with next, and Eldegoss is a pleasant gift indeed. This Cotton Bloom Pokémon ranks well in battle prowess and adorableness, the two key elements in a trainer's decision when crafting their team.

Eldegoss doesn't have the best HP, but it makes up for it with a move-set designed for support. Moves like Sleep Powder, Aromatherapy, Rapid Spin, and Synthesis are true benefits of being a Grass-type Pokemon, and Eldegoss has them all for the taking. If you decide to switch Eldegoss out, Regenerator will heal 1/3 of its maximum HP, another reason to love this little cotton ball.

6 Roserade

The Elegant Masked Duelist

Generation 4 gave Roselia the proper evolutionary line it always deserved, with a baby Pokemon in Budew, and a superior evolution in the form of Roserade. Clocking in with a base stat total of 505, Roselia's sharp thorns explain why it's one of the best Spikes users in its league. It also has access to three different abilities: Technician, Natural Cure, and Poison Point.

Roserade can also take out st🐎rong Water-ty💝pes with Leaf Storm (taking advantage of STAB) while covering other threats with its wide move pool. This rose has its thorns, so watch out!

5 Tsareena

The Dominant Diva

Tsareena is most likely based on the mangosteen, a type of tropical tree with edible fruit, but also a Tsarina, a Russian female monarch. Besides being the mascot for many beauty parlors in the Alol♒an region, Tsareena is a monarch on the battlefield as well.

Though it learns Stomp to evolve, moves like Rapid Spin and Power Whip are what makes it a 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:truly dangerous opponent. The ability ꩵof Queenly Majesty makes it the perfect candidate for Double Battles, as it prevents priority moves from being used on allies.

4 Venusaur

The Frog-like Flower Dinosaur

One of the most beloved Grass-types in the Pokemon franchise, Venusaur is more than just a nostalgic choice for trainers. The fully blossomed Seed Pokemon is still a viable competitive Pokemon even in Generation 7, surviving the test of time. Previous games such as Pokemon X & Y can also take advantage of its 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Mega Evolution, giving it a considerable boost to its Defenses.

Venusaur does its best in the sun, where its Speed is doubled from the ability of Chlorophyll. The move Growth will also increase its Attack and Special Attack by a whopping 2 stages. Make sure this plant ꦯgets some sunshine!
