Stats & Training
Nothing fancy in Gurdurr's spread. It leans physical with Attack out front. And you'll get 2 Attack EVs per KO for it. Follows a 1.06M XP medium-slow curve.
It shows off its muscles to Machoke and other Gurdurr. If it fails to measure up to the other Pokémon, it lies low for a little while.
Gurdurr excels at demolition—construction is not its forte. In any case, there’s skill in the way this Pokémon wields its metal beam.
Gurdurr Weakness
Flying, Psychic, and Fairy moves hit Gurdurr for super-effective damage. Gurdurr's physical bulk (base 85 Def) helps cushion physical weakness hits, but special attackers are the bigger threat.

Gurdurr Guide
At 405 BST, Gurdurr is firmly in pre-evolution territory. Evolve it into Conkeldurr before bringing it to any serious fight.
In Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon, Timburr evolves into Gurdurr at level 25. Gurdurr evolves into Conkeldurr by trading. Gurdurr is a middle-stage evolution in the Timburr line.
Gurdurr gets Sheer Force, Guts, and Iron Fist. But Sheer Force is the one that matters. It's the centerpiece of every viable set. Build around that.
Gurdurr is a physical attacker with base 105 Attack. Enough bulk to take a hit or two, too. Speed tells the real story. Base 40 Speed is low. Priority moves or Trick Room are the way to go. Fits the attacker role.
