Terrakion Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon Guide
For the Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon meta, At 580 BST, Terrakion is built different. We rank it B-Tier. As a Legendary Pokemon, the raw stats back up the reputation. Best used as a sweeper. Close Combat with Life Orb is the standard set.
Terrakion is a static encounter at Alola Ultra Space Wilds in Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon. Terrakion appears at level 60. Prerequisite: LIMITED. Save before the encounter. These one-shot Pokemon don't respawn if you knock them out or run out of Poke Balls.
In Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon, watch for Milotic (Water), Venusaur (Grass), and Hitmonlee (Fighting) when using Terrakion. They all hit it super-effectively with STAB. Ground, Psychic, Steel, and Fairy-type attackers are also a problem. With 7 weakness types, most competitive teams carry at least one counter.
Justified raises Attack one stage upon taking damage from a dark move. That's the one you want on Terrakion. It's the only ability Terrakion has.
In Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon, Terrakion fills the sweeper role. It's a physical attacker with base 129 Attack. Base 108 Speed lets it outrun most of the field. And it's enough bulk to take a hit or two.
Game Availability
Terrakion has appeared in 9 games since Black & White, spanning 6 generations. As a Legendary, it's typically a one-per-save encounter tied to the story or post-game content.
