Cofagrigus Weakness

Cofagrigus Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon Guide
In Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon, Cofagrigus works as a trick room with 483 BST behind it. B-Tier on our list: a solid option in Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon for the right team. Will O Wisp with Leftovers is the standard set.
In Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon, watch for Chandelure (Ghost) and Hydreigon (Dark) when using Cofagrigus. They all hit it super-effectively with STAB. Only 2 weaknesses means fewer dedicated counters to worry about. At base 30 Speed, Cofagrigus won't outrun any of these threats so switching to a resist is usually the safer play.
Mummy changes attacking Pokémon's abilities to Mummy on contact. That's the one you want on Cofagrigus. It's the only ability Cofagrigus has.
Cofagrigus is a special attacker with base 95 Sp. Atk. Tanky enough to absorb a few hits, too. Speed tells the real story. Base 30 Speed is low. Priority moves or Trick Room are the way to go. Fits the trick room role.
In Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon, run Will O Wisp, Shadow Ball, Painsplit, and Toxic Spikes on Cofagrigus. Will O Wisp is the most common pick at 0% usage. This set covers the trick room role with a mix of damage and utility.
Game Availability
