It resists Electric, Fairy, Fighting, and Water-type attacks (63% reduced damage), with Grass-type attacks causing the least damage (39% reduction). Its optimal moveset is Poison Jab and Sludge Bomb, delivering 10.96 DPS and 99.91 TDO. Cloudy weather boosts its attack.
A Shiny Roselia is available. Increase your chances of encountering one by using Incense and plenty of Berries to secure a catch. The Shiny Roselia features a brighter green body and purple and black roses.
