- Substitute
- Leech Seed
- Focus Punch
- Seed Bomb / Spore / Stone Edge
SubSeeding, the advance set, including new moves granted. This worked effectively in the previous gen, and so it will continue be so in D/P.
Use Leech Seed against your opponent, and then Substitute to avoid being damaged. Breloom will last long enough with the health being provided from both Leech Seed and Toxic Orb. This will frequently cause your opponent to switch out from the annoyance, granting Breloom an opportunity to prepare a powerful Focus Punch. To take advantage from switches, Stealth Rock support is very handy here, as Flying types are usually sent out against Breloom. Spore helps the SubSeeding strategy to continue on, but if you wish for type coverage, Stone Edge helps you to hurt Flyers. Seed Bomb provides Breloom with another STAB move.
