The 25 Strongest Grass-Type Pokemon
What are the strongest Grass-type Pokemon?
Along with Fire and Water, the Grass-type is one of the three starter types of Pokémon.
Statistically, Grass is one of the weakest Pokémon types, with many other types resistant to Grass-specific moves.
Many Grass-type Pokémon are dual-type along with psychic. This combination is one of the weakest dual-type Pokémon.
There are a total of 138 Grass-type Pokémon and we have created a list that shows the top 25 strongest Grass Pokémon of all time.
Hopefully, this will help you decide on who to go for when playing the game.
