It is very much worth it, that’s why.

The Life Orb is mainly used on Pokemon like Conkeldurr or Talonflame who can use the 1.3x Damage Boost with moves like Superpower and Brave Bird, respectively, but also have reliable recovery in moves like Drain Punch and Roost.

Also, if a Pokemon has Sheer Force, a move that triggers Sheer Forcealsonegates Life Orb damage, so the Pokemon gets off scot-free. Pretty cool, eh?

Most people put life orb on their Pokemon to increase damage by 30%.

They do it because sometimes it’s very well worth the HP.Sometimes, they have a move such as Recover, Roost, etc, so they can afford it.Sometimes, they have Sheer Force, which takes away the HP loss.
