Last I heard here, there was some question as to whether STAB applied to PvP. They might have taken it out, given that the attacks are turn based and the numbers smaller.
Trying to pick between Bullet Seed and Infestation for Jumpluff. Both moves have very strong energy generation, but infestation does a bit more base damage. With STAB, Bullet Seed would have the edge, but of course, having Bug type in there could also be useful against Grass, Psychic and Dark attackers.
Per PokemonGoHub, STAB is included in PvP, at 20%. Link:

Funny, not getting an answer here, I did a google search. The first two items to pop up were this thread, and then a previous thread that I posted a reply to. So does nobody out there care about this detail besides me?
