Pokedex Entry

It makes noise by clanging its scales together. When the rhythm has reached its peak, Hakamo-o attacks.

The scales it sheds can be molded and processed to make pots and pans. They conduct heat well, so they’re a popular item.

Hakamo-o Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon Guide

  • In Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon, Hakamo-o isn't fully evolved, so it's not built for competitive play. At 420 BST, it's a stepping stone rather than a team anchor.

  • In Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon, watch for Sylveon (Fairy), Weavile (Ice), and Braviary (Flying) when using Hakamo-o. They all hit it super-effectively with STAB. Sylveon is the most dangerous since Fairy moves deal 4x damage. Psychic and Dragon-type attackers are also a problem. With 5 weakness types, most competitive teams carry at least one counter.

  • Bulletproof protects against bullet, ball, and bomb-based moves. That's the one you want on Hakamo-o. Overcoat is the hidden ability. Niche, but it has its uses. Soundproof works too if your team needs something different.

  • In Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon, Hakamo-o fills the balanced role. It's a physical attacker with base 75 Attack. At base 65 Speed, it won't be moving first often. And it's enough bulk to take a hit or two.

  • In Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon, Hakamo-o at 420 BST is a stepping stone. Evolve it when you can for a real stat jump.

Game Availability

Introduced in Sun & Moon, Hakamo O has appeared in 4 games across 4 generations. Later debuts mean fewer total appearances, but it's been a consistent presence since its introduction.
