How to Get Bellossom in Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon
No wild encounters for Bellossom in Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon. Bring Oddish over from Red, Yellow, or Emerald, then level through the stages. Each step in the chain is laid out below.
Bellossom Guide
In Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon, Bellossom looks average on paper at 490 BST. But Chlorophyll is why it sees play. Build around that and it pulls its weight. C-Tier on our tier list. Stun Spore with Heatrock is the standard set.
Bellossom gets Chlorophyll and Healer. But Chlorophyll is the one that matters. It's the centerpiece of every viable set. Build around that.
Bellossom is a special attacker with base 90 Sp. Atk. Enough bulk to take a hit or two, too. Speed tells the real story. Base 50 Speed is low. Priority moves or Trick Room are the way to go.
In Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon, the best way to handle Bellossom: Super-effective STAB from faster Pokemon is the simplest answer. Fire, Ice, and Poison-type attackers hit hardest.
Game Availability
Since Gold & Silver, Bellossom has been in 18 games. Requiring an item-based evolution to obtain means it's consistently available but requires more effort than simply catching it in the wild.
