PVE Offensive Moves Explanation

Razor Leaf is superior to Bullet Seed.
Acid lacks STAB.
Leaf Blade is superior to Petal Blizzard for the shorter charge time.
Dazzling Gleam lacks STAB and synergy with Bellossom's fast moves. Use your TM here.

PVE Defensive Moves Explanation

Acid does neutral damage to Bellossom’s worst matchups, and has slightly better energy gain than Razor Leaf.
Bullet Seed doesn't deal a lot of damage on defense.
Leaf Blade is superior to its other charge moves due to the low energy cost and difficult reaction timing.
Dazzling Gleam has decent coverage against Bellossom’s counters and packs a punch with 2 bars, but it is more easily dodged.
Petal Blizzard is too slow to charge to get use.

PVE Overview

With power creep in megas and other shadows, Shadow Bellossom doesn’t have much utility in any capacity. Shadow Vileplume outclasses it in every category, and is behind even Shadow Weepinbell in DPS. Shadow Bellossom doesn’t have a niche compared to other grass types, and is heavily overshadowed by its fellow Grass Type shadows.

PvP Moveset Explanation

Razor Leaf or Bullet Seed + Leaf Blade and Dazzling Gleam

Razor Leaf features incredible damage output with STAB, at the cost of having the worst energy generation in the game. Bullet Seed is the exact opposite, trading away damage output for significantly better energy gains. Either option can be viable.

Leaf Blade is one of the best charge moves in the game due to its low energy cost and high damage value, and also gets STAB. Dazzling Gleam demands a lot of energy but is the only coverage option available, and Petal Blizzard is inferior to Leaf Blade.

PvP Rating Explanation

Great League: 2.5 / 5

As a mono-Grass type contender, Bellossom has more weaknesses than resistances, but this might not always be a bad thing as it avoids some of the problems that its Grass/Poison friends might have, mainly against Psychic-types. While Bellossom benefits from decent bulk thanks to a relatively lower ATK stat, its offensive power is actually its main strength thanks to its incredible moveset. Access to Leaf Blade and two strong fast move options gives it a lot of potential to deal massive amounts of damage. Overall a good pick for Great League, though Bellossom does lose some points due to big losses against Tropius and Venusaur who fight for the Grass-type role. A lack of adequate coverage moves also can leave Bellossom very vulnerable.

Ultra League: 3 / 5

The level 50 update has improved Bellossom's performance in Ultra League, and challenges much of the meta thanks to its fast Leaf Blade spam. Bullet Seed is generally preferable as it increases accessibility to Dazzling Gleam to threaten popular Dragon-types. Unfortunately the lack of other coverage options causes it to often lose to other Grass-types in this league.

Master League: 0 / 5

I guess Bellossom gets some credit for wins against Swampert, Kyogre, and Groudon. But yeah, consider other options.
