Alomomola Guide

  • In Black & White, Don't let Alomomola's 470 base stat total fool you. Regenerator is what makes it tick. It punches way above its weight class. We rate it C-Tier as a wall. Wish with Rocky Helmet is the standard set.

  • In Black & White, Alomomola's biggest threats include Manectric (Electric) and Roserade (Grass), all carrying super-effective STAB moves. Only 2 weaknesses means fewer dedicated counters to worry about.

  • In Black & White, Run Regenerator on Alomomola. It's the ability that defines how you build around it and the main reason it holds a competitive niche. Alomomola also gets Healer and Hydration, but they don't compare.

  • In Black & White, Alomomola fills the wall role. It's a special attacker with base 40 Sp. Atk. At base 65 Speed, it won't be moving first often. And it's tanky enough to absorb a few hits.

  • For Black & White, the core moveset is Wish, Protect, Toxic, and Scald. Wish leads at 25% usage. Scald provides reliable STAB damage.

Game Availability

Introduced in Black & White, Alomomola has appeared in 7 games across 6 generations. Later debuts mean fewer total appearances, but it's been a consistent presence since its introduction.
