Tangrowth Pokémon | Evolution, Weakness, Moveset, Stats, And More!

Tangrowth

Tangrowth is a Grass-type Pokémon that came into existence in the Fourth Generation. You are going to get amazed by knowing what special features Tangrowth gets from the ‘Regenerator’ ability it has got and that helps the Moveset in better terms to catch the preys. Well, like all other Pokemon Tangrowth Evolution would have weakness too.

Do you remember those Bigfoots that have appeared in many Hollywood animated projects and movies? Yup, Tangrowth pretty much looks like them except it doesn’t have “big feet”. Its legs are wide in shape but short in height. They are coloured in red at the bottom. The colour of its skin is black but it is very hard to get a proper look of its skin as it is covered by several blue-coloured vines. In the midst of these vines, you can see two white circular eyes peeking out. Here comes the strangest part! Its arms don’t have bones in it. Yup, they are boneless!

However, you can easily identify a male Tangrowth from its female form. The females have fully red-coloured fingers while their male counterparts possess the red colour only on their fingertips.

How To Evolve?

Tangrowth is the final evolutionary form of Tangela. When you try to level up your Tangela then make sure it knows how to use the ability of Ancient Power.

Ancient Power aids Tangrowth to apply a prehistoric move on its opponent. Furthermore, we can also witness an advancement in all of its stats. But the chances of its occurrence are quite low. Also, there is a chance that your Tangrowth may glow in white colour after using this ability.

How Much Useful Is My Tangrowth?

Tangrowth tries to catch its prey by camouflaging itself so that it looks like a shrub. And then, it captures them with the help of its vines.

The vines of Tangrowth work as a perfect advantage over its enemies or prey. It doesn’t matter if it loses one of its arms, it will grow back after some time.

We know that Tangrowth is a hunter. But sometimes, it gets hunted by other Pokémon as well. But it doesn’t matter as its vines grow back after being eaten by the predators.

The ability of Chlorophyll helps Tangrowth to boost up its speed by ×2. While Leaf Guard’s job is to protect its stats. Both of these abilities are mostly discovered in Grass-type Pokémon.

You must be wondering how Tangrowth is able to grow its vines again after losing them, right? Well, the answer lies in its hidden ability, Regenerator. It recovers its vines from any kind of damage and aids in their growth.

Like many other Grass-type Pokémon, Tangrowth has also quite a weakness in front of Fire, Flying, Ice, Poison, and Bug-type moveset.

Well, do you think that the Tangrowth Evolution can suffice your needs in the game after going through its weakness, Moveset, stats, and more? If yes then you should run down to the Tangrowth Evolution!

But if still, you think that you may find some better Moveset, stats, and less unhealthy weakness with the help of evolution other than of Tangrowth, then Herald Journalism has information stocked for that purpose.
