Competitive Strategy
Rillaboom is a Grass-type physical attacker and tempo setter. Grassy Surge creates Grassy Terrain on entry, boosting its Grass moves and healing grounded Pokemon each turn, while Grassy Glide gives it priority to strike first. 125 Attack with Drum Beating and Knock Off hits hard, and 100 HP with 90 Defense give it staying power. As a pure Grass type it is weak to Bug, Fire, Flying, Ice, and Poison, so bring it in on a resisted matchup and pair it with Fire- or Ice-resistant partners. U-turn keeps momentum and sets up safe switches.
