Question

Is Cottonee/Whimsicott useful for BW?

Comments

Since they're not fairy types in those games, they'd probably do well.

---

I think it's outclassed by Lilligant, because Lilligant has better offensive stats and can finish battles faster.

---

I used it in my playthrough of bw and it was pretty good, yes lilligant is better but if you dont have the version lilligant is in then whimsicott is still good for gym leaders and trainers.

---

It also gets Hurricane, which is good

---

What about Scraggy?

---

Lilligant is obtainable in both versions. It's in Pinwheel Forest in B and Nacrene City in W.

Answer 1

Whimsicott is mostly outclassed by Lilligant, probably because Lilligant has higher special attack and can learn quiver dance.
