Bayleef in Pokemon Survivor

Bayleef at a glance

Stats and Stat Score

Bayleef has 97 HP, 103 speed and a 1.05x attack multiplier. The multiplier scales every move it uses, so it is the number to watch.

Compared with the whole roster, its HP is below average, its speed is about average and its attack is below average. Weighting attack at half and HP and speed at a quarter each gives the Stat Score of 38.1, which puts it at rank 684 overall, rank 72 of 100 among Johto Pokemon and rank 75 of 118 Grass-types. The score comes from the game's stat table, not from playtests, so read it together with the best Pokemon guide.

On the full Pokedex ranking Bayleef sits next to Pachirisu one place above it and Sableye one place below it.

Bayleef moves

Pokemon that are not starters begin with the signature move of their first type, so Bayleef starts every run with Vine Whip: long-range whips in a wide arc.

The level-up cards can then offer 12 different moves: the 8 Normal moves that every Pokemon shares plus 4 moves of its own type. Moves level up to level 5 and can evolve once you also take the stat card they need, which is covered in the move evolution guide. The permanent Repertoire upgrade adds a second, random starting move; see the upgrades guide.

• Normal moves: Tackle, Quick Attack, Swords Dance, Agility, Harden, Body Slam, Hyper Voice, Substitute
• Grass moves: Vine Whip, Razor Leaf, Petal Blizzard, Grass Knot

Weaknesses and resistances

Bayleef takes extra damage from Fire (1.6x), Ice (1.6x), Poison (1.6x), Flying (1.6x), and Bug (1.6x). It resists Water (0.6x), Electric (0.6x), Grass (0.6x), and Ground (0.6x). The remaining 9 of 18 types deal normal damage. The chart is softer than the main games: a super-effective hit is x1.6, a resisted hit x0.6 and an immunity x0.3, and two types multiply with each other inside the range 0.3 to 2.4. See the type chart guide for every matchup.

The multipliers apply to the damage you take, and enemies attack with the first type listed for them, so the dangerous enemies for Bayleef are the ones whose first type is Fire, Ice, Poison, Flying, or Bug. Boss shots carry their first type too. Weather does not change these numbers, but it changes your own damage; see the weather guide. There is no same-type bonus, so Grass moves do not hit harder just because Bayleef shares the type.

How to get Bayleef

Bayleef is part of the Johto banner. A single pull first picks a rarity (30% for Uncommon) and then picks one of the 21 Uncommon Pokemon on that banner at random, so one pull gives Bayleef a 1.43% chance. Without pity helping at this rarity, expect to need around 70 pulls for this one in particular, although the pulls you spend on the banner also fill the rest of your collection.

A pull costs one ticket and ten pulls cost ten tickets or one x10 ticket. Tickets are earned in runs, from missions and from chests and are never sold for money. A duplicate turns into 30 coins, or 90 if it is the shiny version. The full odds and the pity rule are in the gacha guide.

A rarity-2 Pokemon like Bayleef can also turn up as the Lost Pokemon event in a run. Lead it to the marker and, one time in five, it joins your collection; you always get coins, a ticket and a heal.

Shiny Bayleef exists in this game. One pull in a hundred is a shiny, and wild enemies are shiny one time in 4096. Read the shiny guide for the details.

Bayleef as an enemy

Bayleef can show up as a regular enemy from 1:10 into the run (enemy tier 2 and 3). Each run draws only seven Pokemon per tier, so it is in some runs and absent from others.

Its enemy role is chaser: it walks straight at you and hurts you on contact.
