Spiritomb Omega Ruby & Alpha Sapphire Guide
For Omega Ruby & Alpha Sapphire, we rate Spiritomb C-Tier: a niche pick in Omega Ruby & Alpha Sapphire's meta. At 485 BST, it fits the trick room role. Sucker Punch with Focus Sash is the standard set.
In Omega Ruby & Alpha Sapphire, Spiritomb's biggest threats include Gardevoir (Fairy), all carrying super-effective STAB moves. Only 1 weakness means fewer dedicated counters to worry about. At base 35 Speed, Spiritomb won't outrun any of these threats so switching to a resist is usually the safer play.
Spiritomb is a static encounter at Sea Mauville in Omega Ruby & Alpha Sapphire. Spiritomb appears at level 50. Prerequisite: LIMITED. Save before the encounter. These one-shot Pokemon don't respawn if you knock them out or run out of Poke Balls.
Pressure is the go-to ability for Spiritomb. It increases the PP cost of moves targetting the Pokémon by one. Its hidden ability Infiltrator can work in specific setups.
Base 35 Speed is low. Priority moves or Trick Room are the way to go. On offense, Spiritomb is a mixed attacker with base 92 Attack and 92 Sp. Atk. Defensively? Enough bulk to take a hit or two. Best used as a trick room.
