Uxie Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon Guide

  • In Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon, Uxie is a Legendary Pokemon rated B-Tier. At 580 BST, it hits hard. It excels as a pivot. Stealth Rock with Mental Herb is the standard set.

  • Uxie is a static encounter at Alola Ultra Space Wilds in Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon. Uxie 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, Uxie's biggest threats include Scyther (Bug), Misdreavus (Ghost), and Absol (Dark), all carrying super-effective STAB moves. Uxie has enough bulk to absorb a hit, but don't push the matchup. Pivot to a teammate that resists.

  • In Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon, Run Levitate on Uxie. It's the ability that defines how you build around it and the main reason it holds a competitive niche.

  • In Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon, Uxie fills the pivot role. It's a physical attacker with base 75 Attack. Base 95 Speed is workable. Faster than some, slower than many. And it's tanky enough to absorb a few hits.

Game Availability

Uxie has appeared in 13 games since Diamond & Pearl, spanning 7 generations. As a Legendary, it's typically a one-per-save encounter tied to the story or post-game content.
