Blipbug, a new addition to the Pokemon franchise among Generation 8 Pokemon is a bug-type found in the early stages of the game so it shouldn’t be a problem to add to your collection and complete the Pokedex. This Pokemon Sword and Shield Blipbug Locations guide will help you track it down and add it to your party and evolve it as it grows up.
Pokemon Sword and Shield Blipbug Locations
Blipbug is a Bug Type Pokemon that makes it strong and gives it strength against Fighting, Ground, and Grass-type Pokemon. This makes it particularly effective against Pokemon like Leafeon, Mamoswine and Lucario.
On the other hand, Blipbug is weak against the Flying, Rock, and Fire-type Pokemon. So make sure not to pit your Blipbug against Pokemon like Tyranitar, Growlithe and Togekiss as it will undoubtedly be defeated in a few moves.
Blipbug Abilities
Swarm: Powers up Bug-type moves when the Pokemon is in trouble.
Compound Eyes: Boosts the Pokemon’s accuracy.
Telepathy (Hidden): Anticipates an ally’s attack and dodges it.
