    • Rock Attacker:BugFury CutterRockAncient Power
    • Water Attacker:WaterWaterfallWaterWater Pulse

    ⚔️ Raids

    Among the fully evolved Kanto fossil Pokémon (a very limited group), Kabutops ranks as the weakest option. Aerodactyl surpasses it as a Rock-type attacker, while Omastar outperforms it as a Water-type attacker.

    Kabutops is not recommended for raids, as both Rock- and Water-types have far stronger and more accessible Pokémon.

    🛡️ Gyms

    Kabutops is a terrible Gym defender, mainly due to its low Stamina stat of 155. Its Rock/Water typing also leaves it vulnerable to Fighting and Ground, along with a double weakness to Grass, making it a poor choice for defending.

    • Great League:BugFury CutterWaterAqua JetRockStone Edge
    • Ultra League:BugFury CutterWaterAqua JetRockStone Edge

    🧸 Little Cup

    The Shellfish Pokémon, Kabutops, ranks extremely low in all Little League formats, even falling behind its pre-evolved form, Kabuto.

    Matchup-wise, it suffers humiliating losses against Shadow Cubone, Marill, Galarian Weezing, and Gastrodon, while only securing potentially close wins against Ducklett and Galarian Zigzagoon.

    That last win requires an Elite TM to give Kabutops Fury Cutter as a fast move, while the optimal charged moveset is Ancient Power and Stone Edge.

    🔵 Great League

    Not much changes for Kabutops in Great League aside from its matchups. It remains ranked extremely low, but it can now secure major wins against Talonflame, Abomasnow, and Skeledirge. However, this is offset by crushing losses against Clodsire, Diggersby, and Shadow Feraligatr.

    🟡 Ultra League

    Moving into Ultra League, Kabutops retains the same moveset, ranking, and potential matchups. It still dominates Talonflame and Skeledirge, but does little else, making it a poor team composition choice.

    Better alternatives to consider include any version of Samurott, Shadow Crustle, or Regirock.

    🟣 Master League

    With a max CP of only 3067, Kabutops is far too weak for Master League, even before considering its poor matchups in this format.
