In-Depth Analysis
Oddish's 320 base stat total marks it as a balanced Pokémon with a flexible stat spread. Special Attack (75) carries most matchups, but a low Speed stat of 30 means careful positioning matters.
Defensively, the Grass, Poison combination gives Oddish 5 resistances and 4 weaknesses to plan around. Notably, it carries no 4× weaknesses, which makes it harder to punish. Offensively it pressures 5 types with super-effective STAB coverage.
With a catch rate of 255, Oddish is comparatively easy to catch in the wild. It levels on the Medium Slow experience curve. Defeating it grants Special Attack +1 EVs, which is worth remembering when EV-training your own team.
