Dachsbun's Fairy typing gives it an immunity to Dragon. Only 2 weaknesses on top of that — it has plenty of safe switch-in opportunities. Sits at a decent but contested Speed tier. Known as the Dog Pokemon.

Dachsbun's spread isn't flashy. Defense leads, Sp. Atk trails, 4 stats clear the bar. Moderately hard to find and worth 2 Speed EVs, on a 1.06M XP medium-slow curve.

Dachsbun Weakness

Good

Dachsbun's Fairy typing leaves it vulnerable to Poison and Steel moves. It shrugs off Dragon-type attacks completely. Dachsbun's physical bulk (base 115 Def) helps cushion physical weakness hits, but special attackers are the bigger threat.

Dachsbun isn't available in the wild in Legends: Z-A. Start by transferring Fidough from Scarlet. The evolution path from Fidough to Dachsbun is covered in the steps below.

How to Obtain Dachsbun in Legends: Z-A

  1. Fidough
    Step 1Obtain Fidough

    Catch in the wild in:

    Then trade to Legends: Z-A to continue the evolution chain.

  2. Dachsbun
    Step 2Dachsbun
  • Dachsbun has a 477 base stat total and ranks as C-Tier — a situational pick that fills a niche. It works best as a balanced. Base 115 Defense is where it shines.

  • Watch for Roserade (Poison) and Ferrothorn (Steel) when using Dachsbun. They all hit it super-effectively with STAB. Only 2 weaknesses means fewer dedicated counters to worry about.

  • Fidough evolves into Dachsbun at level 26. Dachsbun is the fully evolved form. It sits at 477 BST in its evolved form.

  • Well Baked Body immune to Fire-type moves, and Defense is sharply boosted — that's the one you want on Dachsbun. Aroma Veil is the hidden ability. Niche, but it has its uses.

  • Dachsbun fills the balanced role. It's a physical attacker with base 80 Attack. Base 95 Speed is workable — faster than some, slower than many. And it's enough bulk to take a hit or two.

  • Dachsbun can be found in Legends: Z-A and Scarlet & Violet.

Introduced in Scarlet & Violet, Dachsbun has appeared in 2 games across 1 generation. Later debuts mean fewer total appearances, but it's been a consistent presence since its introduction.
