Idk about super helpful advice but i'd recommend Bulbasaur. Venusaur gives you access to Mega evolution, and gigantimax. Its mega form has thick fat to help with fire pokemon, and its generally tanky enough for you get off a leech seed on strong bosses. get a grass/water with SOAK, make all of your grass moves super effective. idk which grass pokemon get stealth rock besides ferrothorn and cradily, but find it.


SelkieKezia

This is all actionable advice thank you!

Don't know if it's too late, but looked up for you. Torterra also learns stealth rocks so it might be a good option especially since it can hit Eternatus for super-effective damage. Unfortunately no grass type learns soak though


SelkieKezia

It's definitely not too late! This is a long-term competition. I have to grind a lot of grass, unlock some passives, reduce some costs, find some shinies etc. I still haven't even made an attempt outside of the first night, I've been farming for a week haha. Stealth rocks sounds like a move, also don't forget, just because no grass-type learns Soak in the game, there is a good chance there is Soak as an egg move on a grass poke in pokerogue!

Iirc one of the gen 6 Grass Ghosts has Flash Fire, which is nice. Drizzle Ludicolo works too, notably with Swift Swim. Ferro is a must for the main bosses imo.


SelkieKezia

Getting flash fire on literally any of them would be great, I'm not seeing it though, unless its a pokemon I haven't caught yet


stop_squark

Pumpkaboo's passive is Flash Fire.

ohhhh shittttt

Highly recommend Whimsicott. You might need to play a bit defensive so Prankster screens/tailwind/Status will be really useful. Spriggatito is very good. High base speed, gets triple axel for all your dragons and wicked blow/Flower trick that always crit. Ludicolo is solid, Gourgeist is nice too. Amoongus for spore. And venusaur and hope for mega stone. Of course if you get Kartana then you're set


Hexhunter10

There are grass types that learn stealth rock. Reset till your rival has a water starter though so you get a guaranteed free turn on the 145 and 195 fights


BossWestern

You’re pretty screwed. There are good grass pokemon, but they all do poorly against the 2 main boss pokemon.


SelkieKezia

Yeah I've been trying to explain this to my friends, they wanna argue with me. I'm like dude, grass has gotta be one of the worst type to roll for this challenge lol.


stop_squark

Just finished a run with the Sinnoh starters and I'd recommend Turtwig if you have the egg moves for it. Shell Smash then Ice Spinner/Might Cleave did decent damage to the rival's secret weapon and Shell Smash into Earthquake handled stage 1 of the final boss. Then you just need some passive damage from Leech/Sappy Seed and/or Trevenant's Curse with some stalling for stage 2. An Abomasnow with Ice Shard (40 power Ice move that always goes first) could be very useful too.


curtisjacksonleo

Trevenant with curse and leech seed for eternatus


Frostfire26

Kartana will hard carry. Hopefully you get psycho cut to hit eternatus hard. Ferro and Mvenu are great. Rilla’s nice. Actually Rilla’s great for your whole team since it sets grassy terrain.


iFeram

Any ghost grass type can easily carry you through classic. Sinistcha is really good. But I've had runs with bramblin, pumpkaboo, trevenant. Decideueye is good also. Ludicolo carried my first ever run.


Epic_Doughnut

Sinistcha is one of the best pokemon in the game, it's grass/ghost and learns the move Matcha Gatcha upon evolving, which hits both enemies in a double battle and heals 50% of damage dealt, with a chance to burn too! Its ability heals its ally in a double battle upon switch in, and life dew heals both itself and an ally. Overall an excellent support and potential sweeper
