PLACE IN THE META: While Leavanny differs from the previous regional bugs significantly in appearance, it won't differ too much from them in terms of usability. It is just a weak bug that cannot compete with Scizor, Yanmega, Breloom, Scpetile, etc.

​LIKELY MOVEPOOL: Out of the Fast Moves we currently have in Pokémon GO, the following are the ones that seem most likely to be given to Leavanny:
  • Bug Bite
  • Razor Leaf
​
Out of the Charged Moves we currently have in Pokémon GO, the following are the ones that seem most likely to be given to Leavanny:
  • Aerial Ace
  • Grass Knot
  • Leaf Blade
  • X-Scissor

Should Niantic add any new moves, the following are good candidates for Leavanny's movepool:
  • ​Leaf Storm

LOOKING AHEAD: Looking beyond Generation 5, Leavanny gains no evolution, exclusive Z-Move, or Mega Evolution that is known of at this time.
Thanks for reading, Trainers! We'll be looking at Scolipede next time.
