How to Use Miracle Seed

Offensive Grass-type Pokemon will benefit from Miracle Seed as it boosts Grass-type moves by 20%, and also stacks with STAB.

Do note that this only affects Grass-type moves and will not power up other moves, like moves you chose for covering the Pokemon's weaknesses for example.

Miracle Seed vs Choice Item

Miracle Seed is a great item for Grass-type attackers, but sometimes you may think that Choice Band or Choice Specs may be the better item.

Advantage Disadvantage
Miracle Seed ・20% damage boost to Grass-type moves
・Can use all moves
・Only boost Grass-type moves
Choice Band or Choice Specs ・50% boost to Atk/Sp.Atk ・Locked to one move

Whichever item you should use will depend on what you want to achieve with your Pokemon.

If your Pokemon will only rely on one Grass-type move, then a Choice item is the better option. If you think your Pokemon needs to use a coverage or any other move somewhere down the road, use Miracle Seed.
