That 4x Rock weakness is something every Centiskorch user needs to plan around. Flash Fire absorbs Fire moves and powers up its own, which helps. At least it resists 6 types to make up for it. Part of the Gen 8 roster.
Nothing fancy in Centiskorch's spread. It leans physical with Attack out front. And you'll get 2 Attack EVs per KO for it. Follows a medium-fast 1M XP curve.

Centiskorch Weakness
AvgCentiskorch's Fire/Bug typing leaves it vulnerable to Rock, Water, and Flying. Rock hits land at 4x, so they're the biggest threat. It resists 6 types, so it can switch into a lot of moves safely. Flash Fire grants an additional Fire immunity, reshaping the matchup chart. Centiskorch's special bulk (base 90 Sp.Def) helps absorb special-type weaknesses, though physical moves exploit the lower Defense.
Centiskorch is what Sizzlipede becomes. Breed it for Sizzlipede eggs (average hatch time). No compatible partners for breeding via one egg group. Eggs are average hatch time. The evolution from Sizzlipede pushed Centiskorch to 525 total stats. HP saw the largest single gain at +50.
How to Evolve
Breed with Centiskorch to get Sizzlipede eggs easily from the Bug egg group.

Centiskorch looks average on paper at 525 BST. But Flash Fire is why it sees play — build around that and it pulls its weight. C-Tier wallbreaker on our tier list.
Sizzlipede evolves into Centiskorch at level 28. Centiskorch is the fully evolved form. At 525 BST, it's got solid stats to work with.
Centiskorch gets Flash Fire, White Smoke, and Flame Body. But Flash Fire is the one that matters — it's the centerpiece of every viable set. Build around that.
Centiskorch is a physical attacker with base 115 Attack. Enough bulk to take a hit or two, too. But the speed tells the real story — at base 65 Speed, it won't be moving first often. Fits the wallbreaker role.
