Hisuian Samurott PvE Analysis

Recommended moves

Hisuian Samurott is actually a pretty useful Pokémon, sporting higher offensive power than regular Samurott and also a Dark subtyping to accompany its Water type. While it's definitely not a top-notch attacker in either type with Megas and Shadows around, it still serves its purpose well, and that's dealing decent Water and Dark type damage.

⚔️ Raids

Hisuian Samurott fulfils the role of a budget Water and Dark type attacks well, making it a useful addition to your collection. Feel free using it in 1- or 3-Star Raids, or if you're looking to rejoin the lobby with a strong Pokémon in the most challenging Raid Battles.

🛡️ Gyms

The additional Dark typing hands Hisuian Samurott several weaknesses, including Fighting types which are some of the most common Gym attackers. Not recommended for Gym defense!
