This is something that's bothered me for AGES!!

What kind of attacks/Pokemon can be "super effective" against Ludicolo in battle?
 
Bug, Flying and Poison, but they aren't usually types that are used very often.
 
This should have gone into Simple Answers thread god-damn it.
 
Some things that can hit Ludicolo for Super Effective damage and are at least a decent matchup are:

Scizor (if you switch into Ice Beam / Grass Knot / Toxic) can use U-Turn or Bug Bite to OHKO Ludicolo

Yanmega (if you can switch into something that isn't Ice Beam or Surf) can kill with Bug Buzz

Heracross can come in on most attacks and rape with Megahorn

Tentacruel is also a good choice if you are using Sludge Bomb

If Ludicolo doesn't have Ice Beam you can kill it with Dragons

Alternatively, just use something with decent special defense and powerful Physical attacks that Ludicolo doesn't resist

Alot of flying type pokemon could probably outspeed him, so you could use fly, brave bird or even bounce and do fairly good damage.

ludicolo is only used under rain, with swift swim. No flying type will outspeed it after that, except ninjask.
 
You shouldn't only pay attention to its types. Its base defense is lower than its base special defense. Unless its def is pimped so that it has become higher than its spdef, you should try using physical bug, flying or poison attacks.
 
What Pokevoxx said. A Megahorn or Brave Bird will demolish Ludicolo.
 
I think we can close this thread now.
