Hawlucha Description

Hawlucha is a Fighting and Flying-type Pokemon introduced in Generation 6. It is known as the Wrestling Pokemon, combining quick aerial movement with dramatic wrestling-style attacks.

Competitive Overview

Is Hawlucha Good in Competitive?

Hawlucha can be a strong offensive Pokemon because of its high Speed, useful Fighting and Flying coverage, access to Swords Dance and the ability Unburden. When Unburden is activated, Hawlucha can become very difficult for slower teams to stop.

Hawlucha’s biggest strengths are its speed control, setup potential and unique move options such as Flying Press and Acrobatics. Its main drawbacks are modest defensive bulk and weaknesses to Flying, Electric, Psychic, Ice and Fairy-type attacks.
