Best Pokemon to Use

Pokemon Best Moves and Explanation
Beedrill ImageBeedrill Best Moves:
Poison Sting
Pin Missile
Beedrill can be obtained once you level up Kakuna to Level 10. It has access to Poison Sting early on which is helpful against Spritzee and Swirlix.

While Pin Missile can't exploit weakness, it is still a very useful move to damage your enemy.

Rock Throw
Rock Blast
Rock-type moves are highly effective against Vivillon, as it will deal 4x more damage. Binacle can be obtained as early as Wild Zone 2.

How to Beat Yvon (Rank Y)

Raise Pokemon to Level 16 or Higher

Yvon uses level 15-16 Pokemon, so you can defeat them quickly if you are higher level than them. If your level is low, your damage against the opponent will be low.

Walk Around to Avoid Fairy Wind

Yvon's Spritzee and Swirlix knows Fairy Wind which is a dangerous move as it hits continuously, so try to walk around to avoid it.

Use Poison Moves Against Spritzee and Swirlix

Spritzee and Swirlix are weak to Poison and Steel-type moves. As there aren't many Steel-type Pokemon in early game, we recommend using Poison moves instead to deal massive damage against Yvon's Pokemon.

Use Binacle Against Vivillon

We recommend using Binacle against Vivillon as it can deal 4x damage with its Rock-type moves. Binacle can be found in Wild Zone 6.
