Stats & Training
The stat bars tell the story: Sp. Def carries everything and Attack's dead weight. But this Garden Pokemon still yields 3 Sp. Def EVs per fight on a medium-fast 1M XP curve.
It is said that there was once a Florges that protected the garden of a castle for over 300 years.
This Pokémon battles by drawing forth the power of yellow flowers. It ruthlessly punishes anyone who tramples on flowering plants.
Florges Weakness
Florges's Fairy typing leaves it vulnerable to Poison and Steel. It shrugs off Dragon-type attacks completely. Florges's special bulk (base 154 Sp.Def) helps absorb special-type weaknesses, though physical moves exploit the lower Defense.

Legends: Z-A Florges Best Moveset
Leftovers buys the setup turn. Florges clicks Calm Mind, then starts cleaning with Moonblast and utility options. Timid nature with max Sp. Atk and Speed EVs makes sure nothing tanks a boosted hit comfortably.

How to Obtain Florges in Legends: Z-A
Florges Guide
In Legends: Z-A, Florges works as a tank with 552 BST behind it. A-Tier on our list: a strong pick in Legends: Z-A's competitive scene. Moonblast with Leftovers is the standard set.
Flower Veil protects friendly grass Pokémon from having their stats lowered by other Pokémon. That's the one you want on Florges. Symbiosis is the hidden ability. Niche, but it has its uses.
Florges is a special attacker with base 112 Sp. Atk. Tanky enough to absorb a few hits, too. Speed tells the real story. Base 75 Speed is workable. Faster than some, slower than many. Fits the tank role.
For Legends: Z-A, Florges has answers, but so do you. Status moves (Toxic, Will-O-Wisp) wear it down. Setup sweepers can use it as a boost opportunity. Physical attackers can break through.
Game Availability
Since X & Y, Florges has been obtainable in 6 games. A Generation 6 debut means a shorter history, but Florges has appeared steadily across every generation since.
