Exeggcute
Say it: EXE-ggc-ute
Kids summary (simpler)Tap to expand
Exeggcute is the Egg Pokémon — Grass and Psychic before Exeggutor (and Alolan Exeggutor). In Pokémon GO it is usually candy on the way to Exeggutor — not a finished raid attacker. Grass/Psychic hits Water, Ground, Fighting, and Poison well; Bug, Ghost, Fire, Ice, Poison, Flying, and Dark punish it. Catch Exeggcute from the wild, eggs, or events, then evolve.
