Araquanid Water Bug · Great League
GBL Note Analysis Basis: PvPoke simulation · last-30-day field meta · S28 Twilight Trails
Limited field sample — not seen enough in the last 30 days of GBL Note data, so the analysis below is based on simulation and type matchups.
✔ Strengths & how to use Its Lead · Closer role scores are all high, so it isn't tied to one slot and can flex across positions. On defense it resists Water · Ice · Fighting · Ground · Steel, holding up well against those attackers. Solid bulk lets it stall and grind out advantage in extended fights. ⚠ Weaknesses & threats On defense it is weak to Electric · Flying · Rock, so watch out for those attackers. That said, it's unfavored into threats like Cramorant, so avoid that head-to-head. GBL Note verdict It's barely seen in the last 30 days of field data. On paper it's A-tier, with real value swinging on moveset and team synergy.
