Without TMs, Ogerpon's movepool is bare bones. With them, you get coverage across 8 types on top of Leaf Storm and Solar Blade for STAB. The natural kit handles basics, but TMs are doing the real work.

Ogerpon is not available as a wild encounter in this game.

This is an event-exclusive or special distribution.

  • Ogerpon has a 550 base stat total and ranks as B-Tier — a solid choice for the right team. It works best as a sweeper. Base 120 Attack is where it shines.

  • Watch for Infernape (Fire), Kyurem (Ice), and Naganadel (Poison) when using Ogerpon. They all hit it super-effectively with STAB. Flying and Bug-type attackers are also a problem. With 5 weakness types, most competitive teams carry at least one counter.

  • Ogerpon doesn't evolve and has no evolutionary line. It's a Grass-type Pokemon with strong stats at 550 BST — no evolution needed.

  • Defiant raises Attack two stages upon having any stat lowered — that's the one you want on Ogerpon. It's the only ability Ogerpon has.

  • Ogerpon fills the sweeper role. It's a physical attacker with base 120 Attack. Base 110 Speed lets it outrun most of the field. And it's enough bulk to take a hit or two.

  • Ogerpon can be found in Scarlet & Violet.

Introduced in Scarlet & Violet, Ogerpon has appeared in 1 games across 1 generation. Later debuts mean fewer total appearances, but it's been a consistent presence since its introduction.
