What it does

Holder's Speed is 1.5x, but it can only select the first move it executes.

Who holds it

112 of the 277 Pokémon measured on the Regulation M-B ladder hold Choice Scarf. The one that matters most is Garchomp, which is on 32.2% of teams and holds it on 22.6% of its sets. The full list is above, ordered by how much of the format each one is.

How concentrated it is

Across the ladder, Choice Scarf accounts for an expected 0.32 of the six slots on an average team, which makes it the 4th most-brought of the 26 items this format runs. 23% of that comes from Garchomp alone, so it is spread across the field rather than propped up by one Pokémon. Its holders are mostly Water (19), Ghost (15) and Electric (14).

Where these numbers come from

Usage is Smogon's published statistics for the Regulation M-B VGC ladder, and the description is the one shipped in the Pokémon Showdown data set. Both are regenerated on every build rather than written by hand, so this page follows the format instead of trailing it. Take any of it to the team builder or the damage calculator.

Where this goes next

Build

Open the builder with Garchomp seated — Garchomp brings Choice Scarf to more teams than any of the other 111 Pokémon that hold it.
