Is Togekiss Good in Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon Playthrough?

Fairy/Flying with AbilitySerene Grace doubling secondary effect chances. Shiny Stone from Togetic. MoveAir Slash has a 60% flinch chance with Serene Grace. Fairy shuts down the Dragon trial, Flying handles Mallow, and the flinch strategy can cheese almost any boss fight. One of the best Pokemon for any Alola team.

Togekiss Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon Guide

  • In Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon, Togekiss has a 545 base stat total and ranks as B-Tier: a solid option in Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon for the right team. It works best as a support. Air Slash with Leftovers is the standard set.

  • In Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon, 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.

  • 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.

  • In Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon, Togekiss fills the support 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.

  • For Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon, the core moveset is Air Slash, Roost, Dazzling Gleam, and Thunder Wave. Air Slash leads at 0% usage. This set covers the support role with a mix of damage and utility.

Game Availability

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.
