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, Psychic, and Fairy. 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 loves helping out with construction projects. It loves it so much that if rain causes work to halt, it swings its log around and throws a tantrum.
Timburr that have started carrying logs that are about three times their size are nearly ready to evolve.
Timburr Weakness
AvgTimburr is weak to Flying, Psychic, and Fairy-type moves. Standard number of weaknesses for the Fighting typing.
Three stages ahead. Timburr grows into Gurdurr, then pushes on to Conkeldurr. Check the evolution methods below. For breeding, average hatch time with a decent partner pool via one egg group. Evolving adds up to 200 stat points total.
How to Evolve
Breed Timburr easily with 49 breeding partners from the Humanshape egg group. Pass egg moves like Counter, Defog, Detect and 2 more to offspring.
Timburr hasn't fully evolved, but Eviolite's 50% bulk boost makes it viable anyway. Adamant nature with a spread EV build EVs shapes the defensive spread, and Ironfist adds utility.

Egg moves make a real difference. Timburr gets Counter and Defog exclusively through breeding, filling gaps that TMs and level-up can't touch. Coverage across 9 types rounds out the picture alongside Focus Punch and Superpower.

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.
