Pecharunt's built to absorb hits, not race for knockouts. Physical bulk with Defense doing the heavy lifting. And the slow 1.25M XP grind means it won't take forever to bring up, worth 3 Defense EVs.

Ground, Psychic, Ghost, and Dark moves hit Pecharunt for super-effective damage. The upside? Normal and Fighting-type moves can't touch it at all. The Poison/Ghost typing picks up 4 resistances to work with. Pecharunt's physical bulk (base 160 Def) helps cushion physical weakness hits, but special attackers are the bigger threat.

Pecharunt's built to absorb hits. Bold nature leans into physical wall duty, Heavy-Duty Boots gives it hazard immunity on every switch-in, and Recover handles sustain. Poisonpuppeteer and max HP and Defense EVs tie the defensive profile together.

The level-up pool tells the story here. Pecharunt learns Malignant Chain and Foul Play naturally, plus enough variety that TMs feel like bonuses. Dark and Normal coverage extends the reach beyond that.

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

This is an event-exclusive or special distribution.

  • At 600 BST, Pecharunt is built different. We rank it A-Tier. As a Mythical Pokemon, the raw stats back up the reputation. Best used as a balanced.

  • Watch for Landorus (Ground), Alakazam (Psychic), and Misdreavus (Ghost) when using Pecharunt. They all hit it super-effectively with STAB. Dark-type attackers are also a problem. Pecharunt has enough bulk to absorb a hit, but don't push the matchup. Pivot to a teammate that resists.

  • Poison Puppeteer pokémon poisoned by Pecharunt's moves will also become confused. That's the one you want on Pecharunt. It's the only ability Pecharunt has.

  • Pecharunt is leaning toward the physical side (base 88 Attack). Tanky enough to absorb a few hits, too. Speed tells the real story. Base 88 Speed is workable. Faster than some, slower than many.

  • Pecharunt has answers, but so do you. Super-effective STAB from faster Pokemon is the simplest answer. Ground, Psychic, and Ghost-type attackers hit hardest.

Introduced in Scarlet & Violet, Pecharunt shows up in 1 games across 2 generations. Mythical status keeps it locked behind events or specific story content in most appearances.
