Best Bug Type Pokemon

Best Sinnoh Pokedex Bug Types

Pokemon Types Reason
Pokemon BDSP HeracrossHeracross Bug Type PokemonFighting Type Pokemon ・Very high physical attack and decent bulk
・Access to Bug and Fighting types
・Very hard to obtain (via Honey Tree, low catch rate)

Best Team: Best Pokemon to Use for the Story

Bug Types Not Recommended

The best bug types in this game are rather hard to obtain, and are generally not super useful for the story mode, so we don't recommend going out of your way to add one in. The ones that are worth adding are obtained via honey trees, or late game via the Grand Underground.

While having one or two Bug Type moves on your team wouldn't hurt, we advise using other types for the main story.
