In-Depth Analysis
Gloom totals 395 across its base stats, profiling as a balanced Pokémon with a flexible stat spread. Lean on its Special Attack (85) when planning sets, and cover for its weaker Speed (40).
Its Grass, Poison typing leaves Gloom with 4 weaknesses against 5 resistances. Notably, it carries no 4× weaknesses, which makes it harder to punish. On offense, its STAB moves threaten 5 types for super-effective damage.
A catch rate of 120 puts Gloom in the moderate range — a few Great Balls usually get the job done. It levels on the Medium Slow experience curve. Defeating it grants Special Attack +2 EVs, which is worth remembering when EV-training your own team.
