What starter for nuzlocke US/UM?

1 minute read

I have no idea for who to choose as all have advantages and disadvantages. Popplio is good against all the Kahunas but meh against the trialsand E4. Litten isn’t weak to fairy cos of fire and is good for a lot of trials and E4 but against the kahunas he has no chance. Rowlet is immune to fighting and 3/4 kahunas but trials and E4 don’t give him any favours. Thx for your help.

Popplio/Brionne/Primarina

According tothis video, Primarina is statistically the best.This videoexplains it more as well.

To summarize:

Cons

If you make sure to account for those, Primarina can make one of the best members of your team.

I think Litten is your best choice. It does well against Mallow’s and Acerola’s trials, plus Acerola in the Elite Four and part of the Champion’s team, provided It lives that long. It isn’t weak to the ever-present Fairy types like most Dark types, and good Fire types are harder to come by than good Grass and Water types. Incineroar may be slow, but it has an excellent Attack stat and decent defenses. It has an excellent movepool, learning things like Flare Blitz, Darkest Lariat, Drain Punch, Iron Head, Earthquake, and more. Fire and Fighting are both excellent offensive types, and Incineroar can learn a surplus of each. It being weak to most of the Kahunas and a few trials isn’t a dealbreaker, as you can find other Pokemon to fight as well.

Any of the starters work, but Incineroar is best, due to a wide movepool, a large Attack stat, and advantages against a fair amount of major battles.

Hope I helped!

I think rowlett would be best because he evolves into a ghost type and normal and fighting moves don’t effect a ghost type Pokemon. The ghost type is the only type with 2 immunities
