**How to Defeat Yvon in Pokémon Legends: Z-A – Weaknesses and Counters**

Trainer battles are a core part of the campaign in Pokémon Legends: Z-A, and knowing as much as you can about your opponents before facing them can give you a significant advantage. One of the first trainers you’ll encounter is Yvon. With the right preparation, taking her on can be a breeze.

### Yvon’s Team

When you battle Yvon, she will have the following Pokémon on her team:

– **Spritzee** (Level 15, Fairy-type)
*Weak to:* Poison and Steel
*Resistant to:* Ground and Psychic

– **Swirlix** (Level 15, Fairy-type)
*Weak to:* Poison and Steel
*Resistant to:* Ground and Psychic

– **Vivillon** (Level 16, Bug-type)
*Weak to:* Flying, Fire, Rock, Electric, and Ice
*Resistant to:* Dark, Grass, and Psychic

### Tips for the Battle

While type advantages are important, the most crucial factor in this fight is having Pokémon that are well-leveled. If your team’s levels are on par or higher, the battle should be manageable regardless of type matchups.

– If you chose **Chikorita** as your starter and have been leveling it, use it against Spritzee and Swirlix, as it will be more effective in this part of the battle. However, avoid using it against Vivillon, as it is less effective there.

– For those looking to add Poison-type Pokémon to their team, you can find **Weedle** in Wild Zone 1 and **Ekans** in Wild Zone 4. A bit of quick leveling will get them ready to take on Yvon’s Fairy-types efficiently.

Personally, I was fortunate to have my Tepig evolved into **Pignite**, which made dealing with Vivillon much easier. Additionally, having an Alpha **Bellsprout** in the team helped significantly against the first two Fairy-types.

By focusing on leveling your Pokémon and using the right counters, defeating Yvon early in the game can be straightforward and set you up well for the challenges ahead.
