Leafeon Legends: Arceus Guide
In Legends: Arceus, Leafeon looks average on paper at 525 BST. But Chlorophyll is why it sees play. Build around that and it pulls its weight. B-Tier pivot on our tier list. Knock Off with Lum Berry is the standard set.
Leafeon gets Chlorophyll and Leaf Guard. But Chlorophyll is the one that matters. It's the centerpiece of every viable set. Build around that.
Leafeon is a physical attacker with base 110 Attack. Enough bulk to take a hit or two, too. Speed tells the real story. Base 95 Speed is workable. Faster than some, slower than many. Fits the pivot role.
For Legends: Arceus, the core moveset is Knock Off, Swords Dance, Leafblade, and Yawn. Knock Off leads at 0% usage. This set covers the pivot role with a mix of damage and utility.
Game Availability
Since Diamond & Pearl, Leafeon has been in 14 games. Requiring an item-based evolution to obtain means it's consistently available but requires more effort than simply catching it in the wild.
