Stakataka's Tier Ranking & Meta Analysis

Read meta analysis

Stakataka PvE Analysis

Recommended moves

Boasting an exceptional DEF stat of 298, Stakataka looks poised to be a wall! However, this defensive unit is tainted by a poor HP stat of 156, leaving this Ultra Beast feeling awkward. On top of that, its Rock/Steel typing gives it two double weaknesses: Fighting and Ground. Also, its ATK stat is only decent (213). 😬

Overall, it's not a functional UB. 😶‍🌫️

⚔️ Raids

You can give it a shot against 1-Star Bosses or in high-tier Raids with nearly 20 players, where winning quickly is guaranteed. Otherwise... just don't use it, please. ❌

🛡️ Gyms

Ultra Beasts can't be put in Gyms.

Stakataka PvP Analysis

Recommended moves

Despite its high DEF, the low HP and double weaknesses to two common PvP types (Fighting and Ground) make Stakataka crumble more easily than you'd expect. 🫤 Not to mention, it's also weak to Water, a common sight in PvP.

Ultimately, it’s not worth running Stakataka in the GO Battle League — but yes, it sure looks menacing! So if you're bored, then go ahead… but not if you're trying to increase your GBL Rank!

💎 Stakataka’s best moveset in PvP is Rock Throw, Stone Edge, and Bulldoze.
