Chatot Weakness

Electric, Ice, and Rock moves hit Chatot for super-effective damage. The upside? Ground and Ghost-type moves can't touch it at all. Chatot leans toward special offense (base 92 Sp.Atk) instead of trying to wall anything.

Moves

Don't skip the egg moves. Chatot picks up Agility and Encore only through breeding, and both fill gaps the natural movepool can't. STAB runs through Uproar and Hyper Voice while Steel and Dark coverage and more adds range.
