Pokemon Sword Pokemon Shield

10. Snorlax

Snorlax is always a formidable opponent in every match. With high defense, special attack and great HP, Snorlax is a Pokemon that not only takes good damage but also deals great damage.

9. Charizard

If you are not Dynamixing Charizard, then you are using it incorrectly. Potential power, Solar Power is enhanced by Max Flare that amplifies the solar effect for all 5 turns. Combining these two abilities ensures that every action using Charizard’s special attack power deals great damage. Throw Max Airstream up and Charizard moves quickly to use the first move. This makes it the ideal Pokemon for wiping out an entire squad.

8. Azumarill

Azumarill is useful Pokemon at important moments in the match to finish off opponents or to aid friends. It both deals damage and blocks well thanks to its above average defense, and its Huge Power is almost twice the size of Attack. Azumarill is even more powerful thanks to Belly Drum. It allows Azumaril to prepare to strike in order to take down his opponent after a few turns.

7. Ferrothorn

Ferrothorn has only two weaknesses – Fire and Fighting. Like Snorlax, Ferrothorn was designed to craft battle and break the squad based on Sweeper. Combining Iron Barbs and Leftovers prevents it from being destroyed even without a recovery move. Ferrothorn’s Protect ability increases its endurance in all attacks. Put Ferrothorn in formation with the Trick Room and Ferrothorn will transform from a giant wall Pokemon into a formidable Physical Sweeper.

6. Rhyperior

If you’re up against a roster of strong Physical Pokemon, Rhyperior is the perfect solution. Its attack and defense stats make it a “nightmare” for Pokemon that depend on attack. With Dynamax, Rhyperior will gain a significant amount of HP, making it harder to take down.

5. Aegislash

4. Hydreigon

3. Primarina

2. Dracozolt

1. Urshifu (Rapid Attack Type)
