Corsola Guide
In Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon, Corsola isn't fully evolved, so it's not built for competitive play. You'll want to evolve it into Cursola to unlock its full potential. At 410 BST, it's a stepping stone rather than a team anchor.
In Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon, Corsola's biggest threats include Venusaur (Grass), Jolteon (Electric), and Hitmonlee (Fighting), all carrying super-effective STAB moves. Venusaur is the most dangerous since Grass moves deal 4x damage. Ground-type attackers are also a problem. At base 35 Speed, Corsola won't outrun any of these threats so switching to a resist is usually the safer play.
In Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon, Run Regenerator on Corsola. It's the ability that defines how you build around it and the main reason it holds a competitive niche. Corsola also gets Hustle and Natural Cure, but they don't compare.
In Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon, Regenerator is the hidden ability. It heals for 1/3 max HP upon switching out. Worth hunting for if you want Corsola to compete at a higher level.
In Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon, Corsola fills the balanced role. It's a special attacker with base 65 Sp. Atk. Base 35 Speed is low. Priority moves or Trick Room are the way to go. And it's enough bulk to take a hit or two.
Game Availability
Corsola first appeared in Gold & Silver and spans 17 games across 9 generations. It later gained a Galarian form in Generation 8, adding new dimensions to its competitive identity.
