Editor's notes

Grass type in raids, PvP and the current meta

Toni Ramón

Founder & lead editor · Updated September 2026

Grass-type Pokemon GO covers more than 100 species, from starter classics like Venusaur and Decidueye to legendaries like Virizion, Kartana, and Calyrex. Grass attackers handle Water, Rock, and Ground — three pillars of the raid meta — but the type itself has the most weaknesses of any element in the game (Fire, Ice, Poison, Flying, Bug). This double-edged profile makes Grass simultaneously universal in offense and fragile in defense. Signature moves include Frenzy Plant (the starter Community Day exclusive), Solar Beam, Leaf Storm, Leaf Blade, Magical Leaf, and Trailblaze. Grass types are common in Foggy and Cloudy weather windows, so they reward weather-aware raid planning more than most types.

Best Grass-type attackers

The top Grass attackers are Mega Sceptile, Kartana, Mega Venusaur, Shadow Tangrowth, and Shadow Torterra. Kartana with Razor Leaf and Leaf Blade is the highest non-Mega Grass DPS in the game thanks to its 323 Attack stat and Steel-Grass typing that resists Grass moves. Mega Sceptile with Bullet Seed and Frenzy Plant tops the Mega tier. Shadow Tangrowth, Shadow Roserade, and Shadow Torterra round out the Shadow tier. Decidueye, Rillaboom, Meganium, Sceptile, Roserade, and Tangrowth are budget options that benefit from Frenzy Plant or signature Community Day moves. Zarude (Mythical, Dark/Grass) sees occasional usage thanks to its dual typing.

Grass type in PvP and GO Battle League

Grass types in PvP are core anti-Water tech. Trevenant (Grass/Ghost) with Shadow Claw and Seed Bomb dominates Great League. Tangrowth, Cradily (Rock/Grass), Meganium, and Wormadam-Trash flex into Great and Ultra League core teams. In Ultra League, Tapu Bulu, Virizion, and Decidueye-Hisui (Grass/Fighting) appear in cup-restricted formats. Master League rarely sees Grass picks, but Kartana, Tapu Bulu, and Mega Sceptile flex against Water-heavy teams. Calyrex Ice Rider (Psychic/Ice) is technically not Grass but its base form is Psychic/Grass. Cradily and Ferrothorn shrug off Water and Electric to threaten Bastiodon and Walrein.

Strengths, weaknesses and strategy

Grass is offensively strong against Water, Rock, and Ground — three of the most common defensive typings. However, Grass takes 1.6× damage from Fire, Ice, Poison, Flying, and Bug, with potential 2.56× compounding under weather boost. This makes Grass attackers extremely fragile against opposing teams that field Charizard, Mamoswine, Roserade, Mega Pidgeot, or Volcarona. Foggy weather boosts Grass by 1.2×, but is less common globally than Rainy or Sunny. The best play with Grass attackers is to weather-check the raid boss before committing — Grass raids in Cloudy weather are the optimal moment to field Mega Sceptile or Kartana for sustained DPS.

Notable Grass Pokemon

Grass Community Days are some of the most impactful in the game. Bulbasaur, Chikorita, Treecko, Turtwig, Snivy, Chespin, Rowlet, and Sprigatito all unlocked Frenzy Plant on their final evolutions, vaulting Venusaur, Meganium, Sceptile, Torterra, Serperior, Chesnaught, Decidueye, and Meowscarada into raid relevance. Roserade Community Day in 2024 introduced Bullet Seed. Treecko CD and the Mega Sceptile rollout in 2023 reshaped the Grass DPS leaderboard. Kartana debuted as a region-locked Ultra Beast at GO Fest 2022 before going global, and its raid drops are still chased by trainers grinding Grass meta. Mega Venusaur and Mega Abomasnow rotate through Mega Raids regularly.

FAQ

Grass type questions

What is the best Grass-type attacker in Pokemon GO?

Mega Sceptile is the strongest Grass attacker in the game, followed by Kartana (the best non-Mega), Mega Venusaur, Shadow Tangrowth, and Shadow Torterra. Decidueye and Rillaboom with their Community Day moves are excellent budget options for trainers without legendaries or Megas.

Why does Grass have so many weaknesses?

Grass takes 1.6× damage from five different types: Fire, Ice, Poison, Flying, and Bug. This is the highest weakness count of any type in the game and is balanced by the fact that Grass moves are super-effective against Water, Rock, and Ground — three of the most common defensive raid typings.

Is Kartana worth powering up?

Yes. Kartana has the highest Attack stat of any non-Shadow, non-Mega Grass attacker (323), and its Grass/Steel typing resists Grass and Fairy moves while doubling as a Steel raid threat. Kartana is one of the best dual-purpose investments a trainer can make in the late game.

What weather boosts Grass-type moves?

Cloudy weather boosts Grass-type moves by 1.2× and increases catch CP and IV floor for wild Grass spawns. Cloudy also boosts Fighting and Fairy. The weather variety means Grass raid windows often line up with Water raid bosses, since Cloudy frequently follows Rainy in real-world weather patterns.

Which Grass starters learn Frenzy Plant?

Frenzy Plant is the Community Day exclusive Grass starter move. It is available on Venusaur, Meganium, Sceptile, Torterra, Serperior, Chesnaught, Decidueye, Rillaboom, and Meowscarada. It can be unlocked outside Community Day with an Elite Charged TM.
