Kommo-o Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon Guide

  • For Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon, we rate Kommo-o B-Tier: a solid option in Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon for the right team. At 600 BST, it fits the tank role. Clangingscales with Kommoniumz is the standard set.

  • In Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon, Kommo-o's biggest threats include Mimikyu (Fairy), Kyurem (Ice), and Talonflame (Flying), all carrying super-effective STAB moves. Mimikyu 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. Kommo-o has enough bulk to absorb a hit, but don't push the matchup. Pivot to a teammate that resists.

  • Bulletproof is the go-to ability for Kommo-o. It protects against bullet, ball, and bomb-based moves. Its hidden ability Overcoat can work in specific setups. Soundproof is the other option. Pick based on what your team needs.

  • Base 85 Speed is workable. Faster than some, slower than many. On offense, Kommo-o is a mixed attacker with base 110 Attack and 100 Sp. Atk. Defensively? Tanky enough to absorb a few hits. Best used as a tank.

  • For Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon, the core moveset is Clangingscales, Close Combat, Drain Punch, and Dragon Dance. Clangingscales leads at 0% usage. This set covers the tank role with a mix of damage and utility.

Game Availability

Kommo O joined the series in Sun & Moon and has been available in 4 titles so far. With 4 generations of appearances, it's established itself despite the later start.
