As a Legendary, Walking Wake gets solid stats across the board, though it doesn't dominate any single category. Water/Dragon from Gen 9 gives it a unique niche. Only weak to Dragon and Fairy. Known as the Paradox Pokemon.
Sp. Atk and Speed carry most of Walking Wake's stat budget. Attack's the obvious dump stat. Very hard to catch and yields 3 Sp. Atk EVs. Follows a slow 1.25M XP grind.
Walking Wake Weakness
GoodDragon and Fairy-type moves hit Walking Wake for super-effective damage. Few weaknesses and 3 resistances make the typing clean. With 99 HP and balanced defenses, Walking Wake can afford to eat a neutral hit or two.
A Water/Dragon-type legendary, Walking Wake doesn't evolve or breed. At 590 total stats, it's meant to stand on its own.
How to Evolve
Fire coverage gives Walking Wake answers even while choice-locked. Choice Specs provides boosted special damage with move lock, and flexible EVs EVs with Protosynthesis mean every prediction that lands hits hard.
