The attack for the Community Day of Pokémon GO in September featuring Chelast is known. Chelterrar will learn the Grass-type attack Flora-Statue. We will tell you if the attack is worth it.
This is the attack: On every Community Day, there will also be an attack that an event Pokémon can learn. This time, it is, unsurprisingly, Flora-Statue, which all previous Grass-type starters were able to learn.
The attack is a significant improvement for Chelterrar and makes it a good attacker. But does it compete with the top attackers?
Chelterrar with Flora-Statue – Is the attack worth it?
This is how strong Chelterrar will be: Flora-Statue is a powerful attack that makes Chelterrar significantly stronger. Compared to other Grass-type attackers, Chelterrar does not perform as well.
Pokémon like Roserade or Gewaldro deal more damage per second (DPS). They all also deal more total damage until they are defeated (TDO).
There are several reasons for this. These include:
- Chelterrar has a relatively low attack value of 202. Other Grass-type attackers perform significantly better in that aspect.
- It knows the fast attack Razor Leaf. This is significantly weaker than Vine Whip, which is why some Pokémon, like Venusaur, perform better.
Is Chelterrar worth it with the attack? In the end, Chelterrar is not a bad attacker, but it simply has too strong competition. Roserade, for example, is easy to obtain since Roselia appears frequently.
If you took advantage of the Community Day with Bulbasaur, you surely have a strong Venusaur among your ranks.
You can then forgo Chelterrar and should invest your stardust in other Pokémon instead. However, you should not miss out on a Chelterrar with such an attack, as it holds a certain collector’s value.
How do I get the attack? To get a Chelterrar with Flora-Statue, you need to evolve it during the Community Day. This will take place this Sunday, September 15.
There is a new development: You can evolve Chelcarain until 4 PM, which is 2 hours after the Community Day. The attack will be available for that duration. Previously, it was always until one hour after the event.
You will not be able to learn Flora-Statue through TMs and even after the Community Day, the attack will no longer be available through evolution.
Currently, you can hatch shiny regional Pokémon. We will tell you how rare they are:
