Stats & Training
Nothing fancy in Weezing's spread. It leans mixed with Defense out front. And you'll get 2 Defense EVs per KO for it. Follows a medium-fast 1M XP curve.
Inhaling toxic fumes from trash and mixing them inside its body lets it spread an even fouler stench.

Weezing Weakness
Type-wise, Weezing takes extra damage from Ground and Psychic. The Poison typing picks up 4 resistances to work with. Levitate grants an additional Ground immunity, reshaping the matchup chart. Weezing's physical bulk (base 120 Def) helps cushion physical weakness hits, but special attackers are the bigger threat.
| Damage | Types |
|---|---|
| 2x (Weak) | Ground, Psychic |
| 0.5x (Resist) | Grass, Fighting, Poison, Bug |
- Fairy type does not exist — Dragon has fewer checks
- Physical / Special split now per-move (introduced Gen IV)

Black 2 & White 2 Evolution
Weezing is what Koffing becomes. Breed it for Koffing eggs (average hatch time). A decent partner pool for breeding via one egg group. Eggs are average hatch time. The evolution from Koffing pushed Weezing to 490 total stats. HP saw the largest single gain at +25. View every chain in the Evolution Chart.
How to Evolve
Breeding
Breed with Weezing to get Koffing eggs easily using 45 partners from the Indeterminate egg group. Notable egg moves include Curse, Destiny Bond, Grudge and 8 more.
Black 2 & White 2 Weezing Best Moveset
Weezing doesn't rely on pure speed. Black Sludge gives it Poison-type passive recovery to stay healthy, and Modest nature still pushes offense. Will-O-Wisp and the remaining moves keep the pressure on while max HP and Sp. Atk EVs balance power and survivability.
Best Build
Weezing best EVs are HP and Sp. Atk
Special Tank Moveset
- Will O Wisp
- Sludge Bomb
- Fire Blast
- Pain Split
Recommended Teammates
Moves
Breeding's the move. Curse and Destiny Bond give Weezing options it can't learn any other way, and coverage across 8 types already covers a decent range on top of Sludge Bomb and Sludge. The egg moves push it further.

Weezing Guide
In Black 2 & White 2, Weezing looks average on paper at 490 BST. But Levitate is why it sees play. Build around that and it pulls its weight. C-Tier on our tier list. Will O Wisp with Black Sludge is the standard set.
Weezing gets Levitate, Neutralizing Gas, and Stench. But Levitate is the one that matters. It's the centerpiece of every viable set. Build around that.
Weezing is a mixed attacker with base 90 Attack and 85 Sp. Atk. Enough bulk to take a hit or two, too. Speed tells the real story. At base 60 Speed, it won't be moving first often.
In Black 2 & White 2, the best way to handle Weezing: Super-effective STAB from faster Pokemon is the simplest answer. Ground and Psychic-type attackers hit hardest.
