The Community Day in May in Pokémon GO brings the grass Pokémon Samurzel. Its evolution Tengulist will learn the move Bullet Seed during this period. We will show you how strong the move will be.
This is the Community Day: On May 24, a Sunday, the event will start, which will last a whole 6 hours. During this time, you can catch shiny Samurzel for the first time and earn triple XP.
The exclusive move for Tengulist will be Bullet Seed. This is a fast move and is particularly interesting for the PvP league.
Tengulist with Bullet Seed – What can it do?
Here’s how strong it will be in raids: Tengulist will not play a role in raids even with the new move. Its stats are simply too weak, so it will be outperformed by other grass attackers, such as Roserade or Gewaldro.
So those who were hoping for a good grass attacker for raids will be disappointed.
Here’s how strong it will be in PvP: For the Great and Ultra Leagues, Tengulist with Bullet Seed becomes considerably more interesting. So far, Tengulist has been particularly strong with the fast move Standpauke in the PvP League. Bullet Seed is almost a copy in terms of damage and speed, with only the type being different.
So with Bullet Seed, it learns a move that is quite useful, but Tengulist already has a strong fast move that is versatile.
PvP experts on reddit agree that Tengulist with Bullet Seed is definitely useful, but with Standpauke, it performs slightly better against popular Pokémon in the lower leagues.
So if you are indeed faced with the choice of Standpauke or Bullet Seed, you should opt for Standpauke, as the attack is ultimately a bit more useful.
Should you get the exclusive move? Due to the exclusivity of the move, a Tengulist with Bullet Seed is probably not a bad idea. However, the move is not so critical for the Pokémon GO meta.
If you don’t care much for the PvP League, you can generally skip the move. Tengulist brings nothing in raids – even Bullet Seed doesn’t change that.
How to obtain the move? For this, you need to evolve Blanas, the first evolution of Samurzel, on Community Day. You have time from 11:00 AM to 7:00 PM. You cannot teach the move with TMs.
The only exception is the Elite TM. With it, you can learn exclusive moves. You can find out which Pokémon benefit most from this TM here.
