Stats & Training
Druddigon's spread isn't flashy. Attack leads, Speed trails, 3 stats clear the bar. Tough to catch and worth 2 Attack EVs, on a medium-fast 1M XP curve.
The red skin on its face is harder than rock. In narrow caves, it squares off against its enemies and charges face-first right into them.
It infiltrates tunnels that Pokémon like Diglett and Dugtrio have dug and quietly waits for prey to pass through.

Best Locations to Catch Druddigon in Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon
Druddigon Guide
In Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon, 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. Stealth Rock with Rocky Helmet is the standard set.
In Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon, 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 Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon, Druddigon fills the wallbreaker role. It's a special attacker with base 60 Sp. Atk. 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 Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon, run Stealth Rock, Glare, Dragontail, and Snarl on Druddigon. Stealth Rock is the most common pick at 25% 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.
