Top 30 Best Grass Type Pokemon | Pokemon Craze

21. Tropius

• Dex: #357
• Type: Grass, Flying
• Abilities: Chlorophyll, Solar Power, Harvest
• Species: Fruit Pokemon

Tropius, wonderful Tropius. To be honest, the main reason this Pokemon made the list is because of how it is usually used in Generation 3. It is a HM Pokemon, meaning it usually is only used to learn HM moves to clear the obstacles in the game. It is a rounded Pokemon, however, with interesting learnset that can still prove it to be useful for in-game play.

 

22. Ludicolo

• Dex: #272
• Type: Grass, Water
• Abilities: Swift Swim, Rain Dish, Own Tempo
• Species: Carefree Pokemon

Not our favorite grass type, but it is a fan favorite. Though its utility is slim, only learning one water move naturally in gen 3. It can still equal out to some powerful stats that can turn the tides of battle. Oh yeah, it is a water type as well as a grass type.

 

23. Shiftry

• Dex: #275
• Type: Grass, Dark
• Abilities: Chlorophyll, Early Bird, Pickpocket
• Species: Wicked Pokemon

Dark and Grass combine eliminates competition in many cases. While Shiftry only has 480 base stat total, it excels with its attack and special attack. It is a good offensive Pokemon for many instances, and if you play the field and focus on type advantages, you can’t go wrong in-game. However, you may want to avoid using this Pokemon, even fully trained, in competitive play. One swift kick and you’re out.

 

24. Tangrowth

• Dex: #465
• Type: Grass
• Abilities: Chlorophyll, Leaf Guard, Regenerator
• Species: Vine Pokemon

Tangela in generation 1 was a Pokemon that got the hopes up for many trainers, but it fell short to impress. However, when it was given an evolution in Generation 4, its base stats shot up to 525. That is neck and neck with starter types that are fully evolved. This Pokemon can be found on all battlefields, holding its own against some of the best.

 

25. Decidueye

• Dex: #724
• Type: Grass, Ghost
• Abilities: Overgrow, Long Reach
• Species: Arrow Quill Pokemon

For a real Ghost/Grass type Pokemon, Decidueye is the ideal owl-like Pokemon. It looks like a bird, but it isn’t flying type. Its stats are average for a starter Pokemon that is fully evolved, coming in at 530. It is a generation 7 Pokemon, and its highlights are its attack, Special Attack, and Special Defense. You don’t have to worry so much about its physical defense as it is a ghost type, but you still want to avoid those heavy hitters that aren’t weak to your types.

 

26. Sawsbuck

• Dex: #586
• Type: Grass, Normal
• Abilities: Chlorophyll, Sap Sipper, Serene Grace
• Species: Season Pokemon

If you want something with fair speed and a really good attack, then Sawsbuck is a solid option. It evolves from Deerling and was introduced in the games during Generation 5. Its stats aren’t too impressive, but it is a viable Pokemon for in-game play. I wouldn’t take it into a competitive battle, even if you trained it up. However, taking on trainers and gym leaders, this Pokemon can really keep the battle in your favor.

 

27. Leavanny

• Dex: #542
• Type: Grass, Bug
• Abilities: Swarm, Chlorophyll, Overcoat
• Species: Nurturing Pokemon

This is a well balanced, Grass/Bug type Pokemon. It can give you the edge against many types, and in-game it has a base stat total of 500, falling short of being equal with many starter type Pokemon. Its attack is where it excels at a very decent speed. So, powerful bug moves and physical grass attacks are the way to go.

 

28. Chespin

• Dex: #650
• Type: Grass
• Abilities: Overgrow, Bulletproof
• Species: Spiny Nut Pokemon

This Pokemon made its reputation in the anime as a fun companion. In the game, its reputation is that of one of the preferred starting Pokemon. It has excellent attack and defense, which early in the game, gives you an edge. When it fully evolves, it is viable for both in-game and competitive play if you use it correctly and work on its moveset appropriately.

 

29. Roselia

• Dex: #315
• Type: Grass, Poison
• Abilities: Natural Cure, Poison Point, Leaf Guard
• Species: Thorn Pokemon

For a special sweeper in-game, Roselia is ideal. It has a high special attack, and though in generation 3, it doesn’t evolve past Roselia, it does have an evolution that makes it even more formidable. In Gen 3, this is one of the best Pokemon you can get for coverage against ground and water types. You also get an advantage over most other grass types with its poison typing. Don’t underestimate this Pokemon, for in gameplay, it excels.

 

30. Ferrothorn

• Dex: #598
• Type: Grass, Steel
• Abilities: Iron Barbs, Anticipation
• Species: Thorn Pod Pokemon

If you want to get fancy with your type coverage, while providing yourself with some defensive tactics in competitive and in gameplay, then you should consider the Steel/Grass type Ferrorthorn. It evolves from Ferroseed, and its typing is effective, if not unusual as well. It does have a low base stat total, under 500. However, its defenses are higher than many with higher base totals, giving it a chance to compete with the best.
