PVE Offensive Moves Explanation

• You'll want to pair Vine Whip with Grass Knot to make Simisage the best that you can In the Ghetto.
• Solar Beam is a Big Hunk 'o Love, but it's too slow to be worth using.
• Crunch pairs with Bite for a dark moveset, but it's a bit weak, so it doesn't really Love Me Tender.

PVE Defensive Moves Explanation

• Vine Whip is superior. Don't be Cruel to poor Simiage by using Bite.
• Crunch is 3-bar with good neutral coverage, and will leave would-be attackers All Shook Up.
• Grass Knot is a decent choice as well, though a bit less effective. Still, its higher power has some advantages for those with Suspicious Minds.
• Solar Beam is slow, and on defense it's Now or Never. So the answer is never.

PvP Moveset Explanation

Vine Whip+Grass Knot and Crunch

Are you Lonesome Tonight? Then try mixing Vine Whip's 2.5 DPT (Damage Per Turn) and 4 EPT (Energy Per Turn) with Grass Knot (90 Power/50 Energy) and Crunch (70 Power/45 Energy). This will give Simisear its best possible performance in PVP.

PvP Rating Explanation

Great League: 1.5 / 5

While Simisage's regional status makes many people feel like it's off doing the Jailhouse Rock in some far-away land, it's not exactly a huge loss.. It has some decent matchups thanks to its mix of Grass and Dark Type moves, but many other more common Pokemon can do what it does to a much greater degree, leaving its niche a bit too shallow to be worthwhile.

Ultra League: 1 / 5

Simisage can drop some Burning Love on Giratina with Crunch, but not enough to even sting.

Master League: 0 / 5
