Stats & Training
Nothing fancy in Dwebble's spread. It leans physical with Defense out front. And you'll get 1 Defense EV per KO for it. Follows a medium-fast 1M XP curve.
When it finds a stone appealing, it creates a hole inside it and uses it as its home. This Pokémon is the natural enemy of Roggenrola and Rolycoly.
It first tries to find a rock to live in, but if there are no suitable rocks to be found, Dwebble may move in to the ports of a Hippowdon.

Water, Rock, and Steel moves hit Dwebble for super-effective damage. Dwebble's physical bulk (base 85 Def) helps cushion physical weakness hits, but special attackers are the bigger threat.
