In-Depth Analysis
With a base stat total of 355, Lileep plays as a balanced Pokémon with a flexible stat spread. Its standout stat is Special Defense at 87, while Speed (23) is the clear soft spot — build sets that protect that weakness.
Defensively, the Rock, Grass combination gives Lileep 2 resistances and 4 weaknesses to plan around. Notably, it carries no 4× weaknesses, which makes it harder to punish. Offensively it pressures 7 types with super-effective STAB coverage.
A low catch rate of 45 makes Lileep a genuinely tough catch; bring strong balls and status moves. It levels on the Slow Then Very Fast experience curve. Defeating it grants Special Defense +1 EVs, which is worth remembering when EV-training your own team.
