Weezing | Pokémon guide

While it’s not the prettiest Pokémon, Weezing is a fantastic design for a creature and has a lot of competitive viability, too. It even got a redesign in the form of Galarian Weezing, whose tall top hats mimic the chimney stacks of old-timey English factories.

This in-depth guide is just one entry in our Pokédex, so make sure you take a look at our lists of the best gen 1 Pokémon and the best poison Pokémon to see where Weezing ranks.

Here’s the key information you need to know about Weezing:

Weezing’s evolution

Weezing evolves from Koffing starting at level 35. However, if you’re in Galar, Koffing evolves into Galarian Weezing at the same level. Even if your Koffing comes from outside Galar, evolving it in the region will lead to a Galarian Weezing.

How do I get Weezing in Pokémon Pokopia?

There are two different Pokopia habitats that you can build to spawn Weezing, and both of them only work in Palette Town. The easiest is a Trash Collection Site, which requires a garbage bin, garbage bags, and a sign. However, Weezing is a rare spawn here.

The Good old-fashioned antiques habitat takes a lot more work to build, asking for an antique bed, antique closet, antique dresser, and antique chair. Weezing is a common spawn for this habitat, though, so the hard work is worth it for the payoff.

Weezing’s base stats

Weezing and Galarian Weezing both have the same base stats, as you can see below. As you level up, these stats grow.

• HP – 65
• Attack – 90
• Defense – 120
• Sp. Atk – 85
• Sp. Def – 70
• Speed – 60

Weezing’s type strengths and weaknesses

Weezing’s pure poison typing gives it a fairly serviceable matchup spread, with only two major weaknesses and a strong spread of resistances. Notably, it’s resistant to other poison-type moves, so you don’t have to worry about getting a taste of your own medicine.

Galarian Weezing’s type strengths and weaknesses

Galarian Weezing’s fairy/poison typing is pretty unique, and gives it some decent benefits in battle. Usually, fairy Pokémon are weak to poison, but this type combo balances that out, while keeping fairy’s immunity to dragon-type attacks.
