This Pokémon can draw forth the power hidden within yellow flowers. This power then becomes the moves Floette uses to protect itself.

Floette Weakness

Type-wise, Floette takes extra damage from Poison and Steel. Dragon moves do nothing thanks to a full immunity. Floette's special bulk (base 98 Sp.Def) helps absorb special-type weaknesses, though physical moves exploit the lower Defense.

Legends: Z-A Floette Best Moveset

Floette's built to absorb hits. Bold nature leans into physical wall duty, Eviolite gives it a bulk boost that only works before full evolution, and Synthesis handles sustain. Flowerveil and max HP and Defense EVs tie the defensive profile together.

Moves

Leveling does the heavy lifting. Floette picks up Energy Ball and Solar Beam along the way, building toward a complete offensive set. TMs add Normal and Grass coverage and more, but the foundation's already strong by then.

Floette Guide

  • Floette is meant to evolve into Florges. At 371 BST, the stats aren't there for competitive play yet. Pre-evolution Pokemon rarely hold up against fully evolved threats.

  • In Legends: Z-A, Floette's biggest threats include Crobat (Poison) and Aegislash (Steel), all carrying super-effective STAB moves. Only 2 weaknesses means fewer dedicated counters to worry about.

  • In Legends: Z-A, Flabebe evolves into Floette at level 19. Floette evolves into Florges using a Shiny Stone. Floette is a middle-stage evolution in the Flabebe line.

  • Flower Veil is the go-to ability for Floette. It protects friendly grass Pokémon from having their stats lowered by other Pokémon. Its hidden ability Symbiosis can work in specific setups.

  • At base 52 Speed, it won't be moving first often. On offense, Floette is a special attacker with base 75 Sp. Atk.

Game Availability

Since debuting in X & Y, Floette has appeared in 6 titles over 5 generations. Along the way, it received a Mega form in Generation 6, keeping it relevant across different competitive metas.
