Wurmple

Wurmple, The Worm Pokémon. The spikes on it's rear help Wurmple to peel bark off trees to let him feed off the tree sap. It's feet are tipped with suction pads that allow it to cling to glass without slipping. It is targeted by Swellow as prey. This Pokémon will try to resist by pointing its spikes towards it's attacker. It will weaken the foe by leaking poison from the spikes.

Strategy Using Wurmple

What can be said about Wurmple, well, not much. Its stats are low and it doesn't learn any other moves apart from tackle, string shot and Poison sting.
Well, Tackle is tackle, an attacking move, nothing much else to explain about that.
String shot lowers opponents speed, I guess that could come in handy on this pokemon.
Poison sting, 30% chance of poisoning your opponent while doing some damage, but probably quite a low amount.
As a pokemon, Wurmple is limited, extremely limited. Use this pokemon at your own risk.
