Stats & Training
Raw Attack carries Bewear's bulk more than the defenses do. Sp. Atk barely registers. But that HP pool covers for it. A moderately hard to find Strong Arm Pokemon that yields 2 Attack EVs on a medium-fast 1M XP curve.
It waves its hands wildly in intimidation and warning. Life is over for anyone who doesn’t run away as fast as possible.
It boasts tremendous physical strength. Many people call it the most dangerous Pokémon in the Alola region.

In Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon, Bewear's biggest threats include Machamp (Fighting), Talonflame (Flying), and Espeon (Psychic), all carrying super-effective STAB moves. Fairy-type attackers are also a problem.
Fluffy is the go-to ability for Bewear. It damage from contact moves is halved. Its hidden ability Unnerve can work in specific setups. Klutz is the other option. Pick based on what your team needs.
At base 60 Speed, it won't be moving first often. On offense, Bewear is a physical attacker with base 125 Attack. Defensively? Enough bulk to take a hit or two. Best used as a wallbreaker.
