This guide details how to obtain and utilize Hydreigon, a powerful Dark/Dragon-type Pokémon in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet. Hydreigon's pre-evolutions, Deino and Zweilous, are exclusive to Pokémon Scarlet, requiring trading or transferring for Pokémon Violet players.
Acquiring Deino:
Transferring Pokémon from HOME (Pokémon Scarlet to Violet):
Evolution:
Deino evolves into Zweilous at level 50, and Zweilous evolves into Hydreigon at level 64. Utilize auto-battling or Exp. Candies (L and XL recommended) to expedite the leveling process.
Hydreigon's Strengths and Weaknesses:
Hydreigon boasts a base stat total of 600, excelling in Special Attack and Attack with good Speed. A Timid (+Speed, -Attack) or Jolly (+Speed, -Special Attack) Nature is recommended.
| Stat | Base Stat |
|---|---|
| HP | 92 |
| Attack | 105 |
| Sp. Attack | 125 |
| Defense | 90 |
| Sp. Defense | 90 |
| Speed | 98 |
| Total | 600 |
Type Effectiveness:
Hydreigon's 4x weakness to Fairy-type moves can be mitigated through Terastallizing. Offensively, consider Terastallizing to gain STAB (Same-Type Attack Bonus) on powerful moves. Its movepool allows for both physical and special attacking strategies. Flash Cannon (via TM) is a crucial Steel-type move to counter its Fairy weakness. Other recommended moves include Nasty Plot, Dragon Pulse (or Draco Meteor), and Dark Pulse.
This revised guide provides up-to-date information on obtaining and effectively using Hydreigon in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet.
