Battle notes

  • Eldegoss's Grass typing is best attacked with Fire (2x), Ice (2x), Poison (2x). Start with those attacking types when choosing moves or counter Pokémon.
  • Avoid relying on common Water, Electric, Grass attacks unless they have unusually high power or a secondary purpose, because Eldegoss resists or ignores those matchups.
  • This guide uses the modern Gen 6+ type chart only. Abilities, held items, Terastallization, weather, fields, and special move rules can still change real battle outcomes.
