Timburr sits at the start of its evolution line — not yet at full power, but that changes fast. Most trainers push through to Conkeldurr as fast as possible. Only weak to Flying and Psychic. Known as the Muscular Pokemon.
Attack and HP carry most of Timburr's stat budget. Sp. Atk's the obvious dump stat. Common in the wild and yields 1 Attack EV. Follows a 1.06M XP medium-slow curve.
It fights by swinging a piece of lumber around. It is close to evolving when it can handle the lumber without difficulty.
These Pokémon appear at building sites and help out with construction. They always carry squared logs.
Timburr Weakness
AvgTimburr is weak to Flying and Psychic-type moves. Few weaknesses and 3 resistances make the typing clean. Just 2 weak spots to worry about, which keeps teambuilding straightforward.
- Fairy type does not exist — Dragon has fewer checks
- Physical / Special split now per-move (introduced Gen IV)
Three stages ahead. Timburr grows into Gurdurr, then pushes on to Conkeldurr. Check the evolution methods below. For breeding, average hatch time with plenty of partners via one egg group. Evolving adds up to 200 stat points total.
How to Evolve

Egg moves make a real difference. Timburr gets Comet Punch and Counter exclusively through breeding, filling gaps that TMs and level-up can't touch. Normal and Rock coverage and more rounds out the picture alongside Focus Punch and Superpower.

Egg Moves
Tutor Moves

Timburr is meant to evolve into Gurdurr. At 305 BST, the stats aren't there for competitive play yet. Pre-evolution Pokemon rarely hold up against fully evolved threats.
Timburr evolves into Gurdurr at level 25. Timburr is the base form in a 3-stage evolutionary line.
Sheer Force is what you want on Timburr. Every competitive set worth running is built with that ability in mind. The alternatives (Guts, Iron Fist) work on paper but Sheer Force is what makes Timburr worth using.
Base 35 Speed is low. Priority moves or Trick Room are the way to go. On offense, Timburr is a physical attacker with base 80 Attack. Defensively? Fragile — can't afford to take many hits. Best used as a trick room.
