PvP rankings (GO Battle League)
| League | Tier | Rank | Score | Recommended moves | Typical build |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Great League | A | #61 / 1146 | 88.8 | Acid · Rock Tomb · Grass Knot Cradily isn't fully extinct, but meta changes have pushed it to the fringe. Cradily thrives by piling Attack drops onto its natural bulk. It works best in the backline where it can make those Attack drops stick. It has three viable Fast Attacks—Acid is the most well rounded, while Bullet Seed and Infestation can target specific matchups. | L25.5 · 4/14/14 |

| Ultra LeagueShadow | A | #53 / 844 | 88.5 | Acid · Rock Tomb · Grass Knot Cradily is not as omnipresent in Ultra League, but still a formidable pick. The format's bulk improves its play with Rock Tomb. However, it faces some sterner resistance, particularly from Empoleon, Virizion, and Zygarde. | L50 · 15/15/15 |
