How to Get Goomy in Legends: Z-A
You're catching Goomy first, not Goomy. Goomy appears in the wild in the encounters below. The step cards map the full 3-stage chain with evolution methods between each stage.
Goomy Weakness
Goomy is weak to Ice, Dragon, and Fairy. The Dragon typing picks up 4 resistances to work with. Sap Sipper grants an additional Grass immunity, reshaping the matchup chart. Goomy's special bulk (base 75 Sp.Def) helps absorb special-type weaknesses, though physical moves exploit the lower Defense.
| Damage | Types |
|---|---|
