PVP Mode Explanatory Notes

PvP Moveset Explanation
Vine Whip + Sludge Bomb and Grass Knot

Vine Whip is Tangela's best fast move option, providing good damage and energy generation. Sludge Bomb is your non-Grass option, making it mandatory for coverage. Grass Knot is run over Solar Beam because it's cheaper, and thus more consistent. Power Whip, Tangela's legacy move, has identical stats to Grass Knot, and thus can be run by preference if you have one.

PvP Rating Explanation
Great League: 2.5 / 5

Tangela is...fine? in Great League. Its bulk isn't impressive, and it lacks any meaningful niche over something like Ivysaur (which has a similar moveset, but also gets STAB on Sludge Bomb). The mon isn't great, but it's also not terrible.

Ultra League: 1 / 5

Level 50 actually allows Tangela to reach the requisite CP to compete in Ultra League, though once again it lacks any real niche. Consider looking at Tangela's evolution, Tangrowth instead.

Master League: 0 / 5

Tangela lacks the max CP to compete in Master League.
