help! Breloom moveset

[taeluur]

rate my breloom?

giga drain, spore, mach punch, toxic

 

is toxic worth it to keep? or should i put two fighting moves? (i was debating between trading toxic/brick break or mach punch/brick break opinions?)

thanks!

Bullet seed is superior to giga drain since bullet seed is physical and giga drain is special, and breloom's attack is significantly higher than its special attack. Toxic is generally not useful since weezing/crobat are the best answers to breloom and they are immune to toxic. Substitute / bullet seed / spore / focus punch is a popular set. Come in vs a slow thing, spore it, then substitute, and hope whatever it is doesn't wake up, then spam focus punch / bullet seed.

Brick Break is rather underwhelming when it comes to power, and screens aren't used all that much making it's niche rarely useful. Focus Punch would be much better on Breloom as Spore generally guarantees a free Focus Punch on something

thank you for the response :) do you think sky uppercut is in anyway better? should i replace toxic with sky uppercut and leave mach punch or replace toxic with focus punch and leave mach punch or replace toxic and mach punch for sky uppercut and focus punch

There are a lot of loom´s sets. As zeb said, subpunch, bseed and spore is a popular set. It is, therefore, the best set if you dont feel too confident of yourself. If you feel like soft predicting, return limits much more the likes of crobat and non synt venusaur, which come on breloom everyday. If you like mach punch, then forego the subpunch and go return/filler with the last being spore obviously. Superpower is advisable since breloom is a hit and run pokemon anyway (in most cases)

My favorite Breloom sets are: Spore / Focus Punch / Substitute / Bullet Seed 

 

Or:

 

Spore / Swords Dance / Mach Punch / Bullet Seed / Substitute or Bullet Seed
