Tropius is a large Grass and Flying-type Pokemon that lives in tropical areas. It grows fruit around its neck, flies by flapping the broad leaves on its back and does not evolve into or from any other Pokemon.
Competitive Overview
Tropius is usually a niche competitive Pokemon because of its low Speed and major Ice weakness, but it can still provide utility in lower-power formats with support moves, recovery and sun-based ability options.
Tropius is best used in casual play, themed teams or formats where Harvest, Chlorophyll or Solar Power can be supported. Its biggest issue is its four-times weakness to Ice-type attacks, along with weaknesses to Fire, Flying, Poison and Rock.
