What it does on the ladder
Stunfisk-Galar appears on 0.01% of Regulation M-B teams, which
is 271st of the 277 Pokémon with enough games to measure.
The move it almost always carries is Protect, on 89.3% of sets.
The item is usually Passho Berry at 36.7%.
Every one of them runs Mimicry.
Those are Smogon's published usage figures, not anything measured here, and they describe what
the ladder plays rather than what is strongest. The full set is in the panel above.
The Pokémon itself
Stunfisk-Galar is number 618 in the National Dex, a Unova Pokémon, Ground and Steel
with a base stat total of 471 — 197th of the 234 Pokémon
legal in this regulation. Its best stat is HP at 109, 16th
in the format; its weakest is Speed at 32, 217th.
Its only ability is Mimicry.
The Champions module tiers it UU.
It has no evolutions on either side; what you see is the whole line.
What gets through
As Ground and Steel, 4 of the eighteen attacking types do extra damage to it. It
resists 8 and is immune to 2. The board above
has all of it. 2 other legal Pokémon share the same typing and the same board: Excadrill, Steelix.
What threatens it
Smogon publishes no head-to-head checks-and-counters data for doubles formats, so this list is
computed, not measured: the most-played Regulation M-B Pokémon carrying a damaging
move of a type Stunfisk-Galar takes extra damage from.
- Incineroar — Flare Blitz (Fire, ×2), on 91.1% of its sets
- Garchomp — Earthquake (Ground, ×2), on 85.1% of its sets
- Basculegion — Aqua Jet (Water, ×2), on 96.8% of its sets
- Sneasler — Close Combat (Fighting, ×2), on 99.9% of its sets
- Charizard-Mega-Y — Heat Wave (Fire, ×2), on 99.9% of its sets
- Staraptor-Mega — Close Combat (Fighting, ×2), on 100% of its sets
Against its own formes
Stunfisk has 2 legal formes in this regulation and they share a
typing, so the only thing separating them is the stat line.
This one has the highest Attack at 81 and Defense at 99 of the 2.
It has the lowest Sp. Atk at 66 and Sp. Def at 84.
The others are Stunfisk.
Speed and weight
At level 50 with a boosting nature and full investment, Stunfisk-Galar reaches
92 Speed; left uninvested with a neutral nature it sits at
52. Invested, it outruns 0 of the 20
most-used Pokémon in the regulation when they are invested too — which is the comparison that
decides who moves first.
It weighs 20.5 kg, so Grass Knot and Low Kick hit it for 40 base
power. That is a real consideration in a format where both are common.
Its move pool
Stunfisk-Galar learns 57 moves in the Champions data.
36 of them do damage, across 12 of the eighteen
types, and 10 share a type with it and so get the same-type bonus.
Its hardest-hitting same-type move is Steel Beam at 140 base power.
It also has priority: Sucker Punch at +1.
That pool is what the team builder reads from when you seat it, and the
damage calculator will take it as the attacker with
the form already chosen.
