This Flabébé rides a yellow flower. The Pokémon is defenseless and vulnerable before it has found and received power from a flower.

Flabébé Weakness

Poison and Steel moves hit Flabébé for super-effective damage. The upside? Dragon-type moves can't touch it at all. Flabébé's special bulk (base 79 Sp.Def) helps absorb special-type weaknesses, though physical moves exploit the lower Defense.
