USUM Beheeyem Best Moveset
125 Sp. Atk with AbilityAnalytic boosting damage by 30%% when acting last as a hidden ability. Psychic TermStab at enormous power when Beheeyem acts after the opponent. But 40 Speed guarantees acting last against everything, meaning Analytic activates on a Pokemon that takes every hit first. Too slow to survive.

Beheeyem Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon Guide
In Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon, Beheeyem has a 485 base stat total and ranks as C-Tier: a niche pick in Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon's meta. It works best as a wallbreaker. Psyshock with Assault Vest is the standard set.
In Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon, Beheeyem's biggest threats include Scyther (Bug), Chandelure (Ghost), and Weavile (Dark), all carrying super-effective STAB moves. At base 40 Speed, Beheeyem won't outrun any of these threats so switching to a resist is usually the safer play.
Telepathy is the go-to ability for Beheeyem. It protects against friendly Pokémon's damaging moves. Its hidden ability Analytic can work in specific setups. Synchronize is the other option. Pick based on what your team needs.
In Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon, Beheeyem fills the wallbreaker role. It's a special attacker with base 125 Sp. Atk. Base 40 Speed is low. Priority moves or Trick Room are the way to go. And it's enough bulk to take a hit or two.
For Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon, the core moveset is Psyshock, Energy Ball, Shadow Ball, and Chargebeam. Psyshock leads at 0% usage. Psyshock provides reliable STAB damage.
Game Availability
Introduced in Black & White, Beheeyem has appeared in 7 games across 6 generations. Later debuts mean fewer total appearances, but it's been a consistent presence since its introduction.
