Togekiss's Fairy/Flying typing gives it an immunity to Ground and Dragon. The 5 weaknesses are the tradeoff, but that immunity creates real opportunities. Known as the Jubilee Pokemon. Its damage comes from the special side.

Togekiss's spread isn't flashy. Sp. Atk leads, Attack trails, 5 stats clear the bar. Tough to catch and worth 3 Sp. Atk and Sp. Def EVs, on a fast 800K XP curve.

Togekiss Weakness

Good

Togekiss is weak to Electric, Ice, Poison, Rock, and Steel-type moves. On the flip side, it's immune to Ground and Dragon-type moves entirely. It resists 4 types, giving it decent defensive coverage. Togekiss's overall bulk (85/95/115) lets it take a hit or two from most weaknesses before going down.

Togekiss doesn't evolve through normal leveling. You'll need an evolution item to get here from Togepi's line. Breed this form to get Togepi eggs (quick to hatch). Evolving from Togepi gave Togekiss the biggest boost in Sp.Atk (+80), bringing the total to 545 stats.

Double-Edge and Last Resort bring the raw damage. But Togekiss also picks up coverage across 11 types from TMs, making it tough to find a safe switch. You're not locked into one angle here.

  3. Togekiss
    Step 3Togekiss ✓

  • Togekiss has a 545 base stat total and ranks as B-Tier — a solid choice for the right team. It works best as a wallbreaker. Base 120 Sp. Atk is where it shines.

  • Togekiss's biggest threats include Jolteon (Electric), Cloyster (Ice), and Crobat (Poison), all carrying super-effective STAB moves. Rock and Steel-type attackers are also a problem. With 5 weakness types, most competitive teams carry at least one counter.

  • Togetic evolves into Togekiss using a Shiny Stone. Togekiss is the final evolution in a 3-stage line starting from Togepi. At 545 BST, it's got solid stats to work with.

  • Hustle is the go-to ability for Togekiss. It strengthens physical moves to inflict 1.5× damage, but decreases their accuracy to 0.8×. Its hidden ability Super Luck can work in specific setups. Serene Grace is the other option — pick based on what your team needs.

  • Togekiss fills the wallbreaker role. It's a special attacker with base 120 Sp. Atk. Base 80 Speed is workable — faster than some, slower than many. And it's tanky enough to absorb a few hits.

  • Togekiss appears in 12 games, including Platinum, HeartGold & SoulSilver, and Diamond & Pearl.

Togekiss has been available in 12 games since Diamond & Pearl, though obtaining it requires an item-based evolution. This extra step makes it less common than Pokemon found through standard wild encounters.
