Can Breloom be shiny in Pokemon Go?

Yes, shiny Breloom is available in Pokemon Go.

Lucky players can catch a shiny Shroomish and evolve it into a shiny Breloom. Shiny Pokemon are rare in the game and the odds of encountering a shiny Shroomish in Pokemon Go are 1 in 500 or 0.2% chance.

Is Breloom good in Pokemon Go PvP?

Yes, Breeloom is good in Pokemon Go PvP, particularly in the Ultra League.

The useful combination of Grass and Fighting types gives Breloom a lot to flex in the limited CP (Combat Power) PvP formats, where it’s decent in the Great League and pretty useful in the Ultra League.

With its strong offensive presence, it can eliminate both Ground and Steel-type Pokemon, two of the most meta-relevant types in PvP. That said, you need to be careful about Flying-type species, as Breloom has a double weakness (4x) to these attacks.

Best Breloom Pokemon Go PvP moveset

The best PvP moveset for Breloom in Pokemon Go is Counter as a Fast Move, along with Dynamic Punch and Seed Bomb as Charged Moves.

Counter is arguably the best Fast Move in Pokemon Go PvP as it sports an excellent combination of damage output and energy generation with 4.00 DPT (Damage Per Turn) and 3.50 EPT (Energy Per Turn).

Additionally, Counter also gets STAB (Same Type Attack Bonus) so it pairs well with Dynamic Punch to form a powerful Fighting-type moveset to take out Steel, Normal, Dark, Rock, and Ice types in the meta.

Seed Bomb is a great secondary Charged Move as it costs only 45 energy and can be used to bait shields while also having STAB.

Is Breloom good in Pokemon Go PvE?

Yes, Breloom is good in Pokemon Go PvE, though you will find better Grass and Fighting-type attackers for Gyms and Raids.

While the 241 Attack stat helps Breloom pack quite a punch, its bulk is rather low which makes it faint relatively quicker than other Pokemon in Raid Battles. If you’re looking for better species, you can consider Kartana, Roserade, Lucario, Conkeldurr, or Terrakion.

Best Breloom Pokemon Go PvE moveset

If you still want to use Breloom in Pokemon Go PvE, you can go ahead with Counter as a Fast Move paired with Dynamic Punch as a Charged Move.

You can bring Breloom to a Raid if your first party has been knocked out and you need some high Fighting-type DPS (Damage Per Second) in a limited time to take down the Raid Boss. Do remember to dodge when you use Breloom in Pokemon Go PvE.
