Furret's Normal typing gives it an immunity to Ghost. Only 1 weaknesses on top of that — it has plenty of safe switch-in opportunities. It sits at a decent but contested Speed tier. Known as the Long Body Pokemon.

Furret's spread isn't flashy. Speed leads, Sp. Atk trails, 2 stats clear the bar. Moderately hard to find and worth 2 Speed EVs, on a medium-fast 1M XP curve.

FURRET has a very slim build. When under attack, it can slickly squirm through narrow spaces and get away. In spite of its short limbs, this POKéMON is very nimble and fleet.

Ruby / Sapphire

Furret Weakness

Good

Type-wise, Furret takes extra damage from Fighting. Ghost moves do nothing thanks to a full immunity. Only 1 weakness makes it relatively easy to build around defensively.

Prediction matters here. Choice Band means Furret can't change moves after clicking, but the payoff is raw power at the cost of move flexibility. Max Attack and Speed EVs with Runaway back that up. Utility options prevents free switches.

Hard to wall, honestly. Furret threatens 10 types beyond its own STAB, with Ice and Fighting standing out. Pair that with Hyper Beam and Double-Edge and switchins need to think twice.

  2. Furret
    Step 2Furret
  • Furret has a 415 base stat total and ranks as C-Tier — a situational pick that fills a niche. It works best as a pivot.

  • Furret's biggest threats include Machamp (Fighting), all carrying super-effective STAB moves. Only 1 weakness means fewer dedicated counters to worry about.

  • Sentret evolves into Furret at level 15. Furret is the fully evolved form. It sits at 415 BST in its evolved form.

  • Run Away is the go-to ability for Furret. It ensures success fleeing from wild battles. Its hidden ability Frisk can work in specific setups. Keen Eye is the other option — pick based on what your team needs.

  • Furret fills the pivot role. It's a physical attacker with base 76 Attack. Base 90 Speed is workable — faster than some, slower than many. And it's enough bulk to take a hit or two.

  • Furret appears in 16 games, including Gold & Silver, Crystal, and Ruby & Sapphire.

Furret first appeared in Gold & Silver and has been available in 16 games across 8 generations. Obtainable through wild encounters in most titles where it appears.
