What is Leon team weakness?

Answered by Tom Adger

Leon’s team weakness can be exploited by using certain strategies and types of Pokemon. While he is a formidable opponent, there are a few weaknesses in his team that can be taken advantage of.

1. Dark-type Pokemon: Dark-type Pokemon are particularly effective against Leon’s team. This is because most of his Pokemon do not know Fairy, Bug, or Fighting-type moves, which are typically strong against Dark-types. Aegislash, which is Leon’s lead Pokemon, is weak to Dark-type moves. This makes Dark-type Pokemon a great choice to counter Aegislash and potentially deal significant damage to other members of his team.

2. Aegislash: Aegislash is one of Leon’s key Pokemon, and it can be challenging to deal with due to its unique typing and ability. However, Dark-type moves are super effective against Aegislash, as it is a Ghost/Steel-type. Using Dark-type Pokemon with strong Dark-type moves can quickly whittle down Aegislash’s HP and potentially knock it out before it can cause much trouble.

3. Dragapult: Another Pokemon on Leon’s team that can be exploited is Dragapult. Dragapult is a Dragon/Ghost-type Pokemon, and its typing makes it weak to Dark and Ghost-type moves. Dark-type Pokemon can deal significant damage to Dragapult and potentially take it out quickly. It is worth noting that Dragapult is a fast and powerful Pokemon, so it is important to have a plan to counter it effectively.

4. Fairy-type Pokemon: While Leon’s team does not have many Pokemon that can deal super effective damage against Fairy-types, having a strong Fairy-type Pokemon on your team can still be beneficial. Fairy-type moves can be used to deal neutral damage to most of Leon’s team and potentially provide some coverage against other members of his team. Additionally, Fairy-types often have access to moves that can support the rest of your team, such as healing and status moves.

5. Other weaknesses: While Dark-type and Fairy-type Pokemon can be advantageous against Leon’s team, it is also important to consider the other types and strategies that his team may be weak to. For example, Leon’s team includes Pokemon such as Charizard, which is weak to Rock, Electric, and Water-type moves. Considering the individual weaknesses of each Pokemon on his team and building a team that can exploit those weaknesses can be a key strategy in defeating Leon.

Dark-type Pokemon are generally strong against Leon’s team due to the lack of Fairy, Bug, or Fighting-type moves in his team. Exploiting the weaknesses of Aegislash and Dragapult, as well as considering other individual weaknesses on his team, can give you an advantage in battles against Leon. Remember to plan your team composition and movesets carefully to maximize your chances of success.
