PVP Mode Explanatory Notes

PvP Moveset Explanation
Bullet Seed + Rock Slide and Grass Knot

Bullet Seed is Cradily’s best fast move, building energy pretty quickly and benefiting from STAB. Infestation offers the same energy generation, but falls behind slightly without STAB. 

Rock Slide (75 power/45 energy) and Grass Knot (90 power/50 energy) benefit from STAB to provide very solid coverage, only being walled by Steel-types and certain dual-type Fighting Pokémon. Stone Edge (100 power/55 energy) is an very good move, but it's rather expensive, and Rock Slide is often preferred as a result. Bulldoze (80 power/60 energy) isn’t very good. While you certainly could swap out either of the other moves to give you anti-Steel coverage, swapping Stone Edge leaves you hard walled by a lot of Flying-type Pokémon, and swapping Grass Knot just makes Cradily a worse version of Mud Shot/Stone Edge/Mud Bomb Quagsire (which is a better Great League investment anyway).

PvP Rating Explanation
Great League: 3.5 / 5

Cradily's unique Rock / Grass typing allows it to break certain cores, such as those involving Lanturn and Noctowl. With solid bulk and good moves, Cradily is pretty reliable at this job. Vulnerabilities to Registeel and Counter users can be tough for it, but Cradily can leave a dent against most other things.

Ultra League: 3 / 5

Cradily can reach the Ultra League CP Cap at Level 50. It has a tougher time making progress in this league due to the prevalence of Giratina and Cobalion, and in general the cores that Cradily breaks are less common. Certain cups can still let Cradily shine though.

Master League: 0 / 5

Cradily can’t really compete in Master League.
