Feraligite buys the setup turn. Feraligatr clicks Dragon Dance, then starts cleaning with Liquidation and the remaining moves. Adamant nature with max Attack and Speed EVs makes sure nothing tanks a boosted hit comfortably.

Moves
TMs carry this one. Feraligatr learns Hydro Cannon and Hydro Pump naturally for STAB, but the offensive range comes almost entirely from technical machines. Normal and Dark and beyond give it real matchup play.

How to Get Feraligatr in Legends: Z-A
No wild encounters for Feraligatr in Legends: Z-A. Bring Totodile over from Gold, Crystal, or Brilliant Diamond, then level through the stages. Each step in the chain is laid out below.
Feraligatr Guide
In Legends: Z-A, Sheer Force changes the entire equation for Feraligatr. The 530 BST doesn't tell the full story. Ranked B-Tier as an attacker. Liquidation with Feraligite is the standard set.
Sheer Force is what you want on Feraligatr. Every competitive set worth running is built with that ability in mind. The alternatives (Torrent) work on paper but Sheer Force is what makes Feraligatr worth using.
Base 78 Speed is workable. Faster than some, slower than many. On offense, Feraligatr is a physical attacker with base 105 Attack. Defensively? Enough bulk to take a hit or two. Best used as an attacker.
In Legends: Z-A, Sheer Force is the hidden ability. It strengthens moves with extra effects to 1.3× their power, but prevents their extra effects. Worth hunting for if you want Feraligatr to compete at a higher level.
Game Availability
Available in 17 titles since its debut in Gold & Silver, Feraligatr spans 9 generations of Pokemon games. It's accessible through wild encounters in most mainline games.
