Druddigon Black 2 & White 2 Guide
In Black 2 & White 2, Don't let Druddigon's 485 base stat total fool you. Sheer Force is what makes it tick. It punches way above its weight class. We rate it C-Tier as a wallbreaker. Dragontail with Rocky Helmet is the standard set.
In Black 2 & White 2, Run Sheer Force on Druddigon. It's the ability that defines how you build around it and the main reason it holds a competitive niche. Druddigon also gets Rough Skin and Mold Breaker, but they don't compare.
In Black 2 & White 2, Druddigon fills the wallbreaker role. It's a physical attacker with base 120 Attack. Base 48 Speed is low. Priority moves or Trick Room are the way to go. And it's enough bulk to take a hit or two.
In Black 2 & White 2, run Dragontail, Glare, Stealth Rock, and Dragonclaw on Druddigon. Dragontail is the most common pick at 0% usage. This set covers the wallbreaker role with a mix of damage and utility.
Game Availability
Introduced in Black & White, Druddigon has appeared in 7 games across 6 generations. Later debuts mean fewer total appearances, but it's been a consistent presence since its introduction.
