In-Depth Analysis
Cherrim's 450 base stat total marks it as a balanced Pokémon with a flexible stat spread. Special Attack (87) carries most matchups, but a low Attack stat of 60 means careful positioning matters.
Defensively, the Grass combination gives Cherrim 4 resistances and 5 weaknesses to plan around. Notably, it carries no 4× weaknesses, which makes it harder to punish. Offensively it pressures 3 types with super-effective STAB coverage.
A catch rate of 75 puts Cherrim in the moderate range — a few Great Balls usually get the job done. It levels on the Medium experience curve. Defeating it grants Special Attack +2 EVs, which is worth remembering when EV-training your own team.
