Is Chatot Good in Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon Playthrough?

Normal/Flying with decent Special Attack. MoveChatter is its gimmick. The stats and typing are too mediocre to compete with Alola's deeper Flying roster.

Chatot Weakness

Electric, Ice, and Rock moves hit Chatot for super-effective damage. The upside? Ground and Ghost-type moves can't touch it at all. Chatot leans toward special offense (base 92 Sp.Atk) instead of trying to wall anything.

Moves List

Don't skip the egg moves. Chatot picks up Agility and Air Cutter only through breeding, and both fill gaps the natural movepool can't. STAB runs through Boomburst and Sky Attack while Psychic and Steel coverage and more adds range.

Chatot Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon Guide

  • In Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon, watch for Raikou (Electric), Walrein (Ice), and Rhyperior (Rock) when using Chatot. They all hit it super-effectively with STAB.

  • For Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon, it depends on your team. Chatot at 411 BST isn't a powerhouse, but the Normal/Flying coverage might be exactly what you're missing.

  • In Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon, Chatot has a 411 base stat total and ranks as C-Tier: a niche pick in Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon's meta. It works best as a pivot. Chatter with Leftovers is the standard set.

  • Keen Eye prevents accuracy from being lowered. That's the one you want on Chatot. Big Pecks is the hidden ability. Niche, but it has its uses. Tangled Feet works too if your team needs something different.

  • In Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon, Chatot fills the pivot role. It's a special attacker with base 92 Sp. Atk. Base 91 Speed is workable. Faster than some, slower than many. And it's fragile, can't afford to take many hits.

Game Availability

Chatot first appeared in Diamond & Pearl and has been available in 11 games across 7 generations. Obtainable through wild encounters in most titles where it appears.
