Fraxure Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon Guide
At 410 BST, Fraxure is firmly in pre-evolution territory. Evolve it into Haxorus before bringing it to any serious fight.
Fraxure gets Mold Breaker, Rivalry, and Unnerve. But Mold Breaker is the one that matters. It's the centerpiece of every viable set. Build around that.
Fraxure is a physical attacker with base 117 Attack. Speed tells the real story. At base 67 Speed, it won't be moving first often. Fits the cannon role.
In Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon, For a casual playthrough, Fraxure works as a placeholder. Dragon coverage is useful early. The real payoff is Haxorus. That's where the stats start mattering.
Game Availability
