Best moves for Leafeon in Pokémon Legends: Arceus

In Pokémon Legends: Arceus, moves determine your Pokémon’s potential in battle. Pokémon will naturally learn more powerful ones as it levels up, but you can also visit Zisu in Jubilife Village to have it learn others for a price. This is true for every Pokémon in the game, including Leafeon—one of Eevee’s many evolutionary forms.

Best moves for Leafeon

Leafeon is a high-Defense Pokémon with an equally high Attack stat. This means that it’s better off keeping physical attacks over special attacks like Swift. Given that, below are the best moves it can learn.

• Quick Attack (learned at level 6)
• Leaf Blade (learned at level 25)
• Aerial Ace (learned from the Move Tutor)
• Iron Tail (learned from the Move Tutor)

Moves that are used by Pokémon of the same type have their base damage increased by 50%. We call this same-type attack bonus (STAB). Leaf Blade is going to be your Leafeon’s STAB move due to its high power.

Meanwhile, Aerial Ace and Iron Tail are super effective against Bug and Ice Pokémon, respectively, which Leafeon is weak to. Just note that Iron Tail’s accuracy isn’t perfect, so use it in Strong Style whenever you need to for the accuracy boost.

Finally, Quick Attack is there so Leafeon can potentially get two turns consecutively (or another turn later on) when you first use it in Agile Style. And besides, Leafeon has a higher-than-average Speed.
