DISCLAIMERS ON FORMATS COVERED:
Notice I said POPULAR formats, meaning a format where there is a significant amount of people who compete in it for tournaments and so on and so forth.
For the record, I do not care what rules or formats people play their battles by nor am I saying these formats are the only formats that should be played. The way you play Pokemon is between you and your opponent. I just like examining popular tournament formats.

May I suggest doing "How great was Raichu," (Alolan Raichu included) mostly to cover gen 7 and gen 8. Since Ultra Moon/Sun meta fully developed already and gen 8 introducing dynamax and cutting down number of avaible pokemon and boosting the weaker ones, Raichu got a very good supporting role with fake out/nuzzle/brick break, and there is this new move "Raising Voltage" that do increased damage in electric terrain that makes Alolan Raichu into a strong sweeper. I believe it is a perfect time to give our poor Raichu/Alolan Raichu underdog the justice he deserved.

Fairy stab would honestly help it very little. In addition to riddling it with a steel weakness, there are few good dragon types in lower tiers. Sure, now it resists fighting, dark and is neutral to bug, but the lower tier mons of that typing were already screwed by the strength sap/quiver dance combination.

I played doubles with an unusual Physical Chlorophyll Bellossom on the S&M Battle Tree with: Item: Lum Berry/Big Root Max EV's on Attack and Speed And the moves were: Leaf Blade Strength Sap Drain Punch Sword Dance I set Sun with Ninetales or Torkoal and then bellossom used Sword Dance to do very decent damage.

[@sephangelo4603]

Nice! and Big Root is a great choice for Bellossom.

[@flozikthasapeson9725]

Bellossom is a huge threat in S/S PU, I can't tell you how many times i've swept with it

[@pantherman691]

Just like vileplume is venusaur's shadow Bellossom is every grass type's shadow

[@frogsnidget_7345]

So changes Bellossom needs to have since it’s been around for so long Dancer ability seeing as its constantly dancing and gains quiver dance, petal dance etc Gains the fairy typing as gets a heap of fairy moves and would better differentiate it from its counterpart Vileplume Keep it going in the comments!

As a showdown random battles veteran, this thing’s Quiver Dance set will always haunt me.

[@3godzilla3]

I LOVE Bellossom!!! 😭 Any Bellossom fans here?

[@N13TheGeneral]

Quiver Dance with Strength Sap and Giga Drain is amazing

[@lukerennie4457]

This mon actually has a niche in gen 8 ubers as the baton bassing ingrain user, wixh it can actually do well at thanks to it also having quiver dancer

[@splitsee2526]

Bellossom for me before the video: (Yes I did look at it's stats) This thing looks like a tank, but that HP looks like a problem. And this thing can't really attack. I think it will suck. Bellossom for me after the video: Oh so it's decently good at attacking in the earlier generations dispite it's stats and it's great in Gen 2 UU?? Wow. Also I am surprised it was great too at Gen 3 NU. Sadly as predicted, it was destroyed by Powercreep. I thought it would be destroyed because of it's stats but no, it's because of it being harshly outclassed. Weird.

[@Manivilization]

ok

[@yourdailysadisticfolkfromi6619]

@@Manivilization lmao, that's how competitive VGCis for u

[@teddyhaines6613]

Gen 3 NU was dominated by things like Hitmonchan and Chimecho. Bellossom's stats were actually pretty solid in that environment, especially with sun.

[@darianclark3980]

FSG: How Good was Bellossom Actually? Roselia: *UNFORTUNATELY,* not as good as me!

[@polypolar715]

Victreebel: You and me sis

[@sharafali7340]

I really like bellossom . I always use it in my gen 2 based games

[@nojoke3202]

Bellosom gen 5 sprite is so cute

[@petrironkko5103]

Even if Bellossom may not be that good, it will always be so adorable

[@sandrahwu]

Competitive Bellossom = When you maintain a passable grade, but the math club recruits the smartest students in your class instead.

[@bobvella7228]

i wonder if there's a math club dedicated to breaking rpgs

[@Thrillin_Chillin_Drillin]

They should bless her with the Dancer ability

[@LivingNihilism]

I think it can be viable if it gets grassy surge. With the addition of the terreain moves namely grassy glide, added by the isle of armor, it could have a stab boosted priority move with the potential to boost on switches with quiver dance. Seems pretty good to me.
