The egg pool carries weight here. Endure and Mirror Coat aren't available any other way for Alomomola, and they meaningfully change what it threatens. Stack those on top of Hydro Pump and Surf for solid options.

Don't let Alomomola's 470 base stat total fool you. Regenerator is what makes it tick. It punches way above its weight class. We rate it A-Tier as a wall.
Run Regenerator on Alomomola. It's the ability that defines how you build around it and the main reason it holds a competitive niche. Alomomola also gets Healer and Hydration, but they don't compare.
Alomomola fills the wall role. It's leaning toward the physical side (base 75 Attack). At base 65 Speed, it won't be moving first often. And it's tanky enough to absorb a few hits.
Best way to handle Alomomola: Status moves (Toxic, Will-O-Wisp) wear it down. Setup sweepers can use it as a boost opportunity. Special attackers bypass its physical bulk.
Introduced in Black & White, Alomomola has appeared in 7 games across 6 generations. Later debuts mean fewer total appearances, but it's been a consistent presence since its introduction.
