Stats & Training
Nothing fancy in Farfetch'd's spread. It leans physical with Attack out front. And you'll get 1 Attack EV per KO for it. Follows a medium-fast 1M XP curve.
Farfetch'd Weakness
Farfetch'd's Normal/Flying typing leaves it vulnerable to Electric, Ice, and Rock. It shrugs off Ground and Ghost-type attacks completely.

Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon Farfetch'd Best Moveset
Stick and Defiant form the backbone. Farfetch'd invests max Attack and Speed EVs to play its physical attacker role properly, and Adamant nature pushes Attack higher. Firstimpression handles the heavy lifting on offense. Utility options rounds it out.

Moves
STAB runs through Last Resort and Sky Attack for the basics, but Farfetch'd's real strength is the 10-type coverage spread. Bug and Poison hit common defensive types, and the movepool keeps going.

How to Get Farfetch'd in Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon
No wild encounters for Farfetch'd in Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon. It's available in Red, Yellow, or Brilliant Diamond and can be transferred over. The details below show where to find it.
Farfetch'd Guide
At 377 BST, Farfetch'd is firmly in pre-evolution territory. Not competitive in its current form.
In Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon, watch for Raikou (Electric), Lapras (Ice), and Aerodactyl (Rock) when using Farfetch'd. They all hit it super-effectively with STAB.
Keen Eye prevents accuracy from being lowered. That's the one you want on Farfetch'd. Defiant is the hidden ability. Niche, but it has its uses. Inner Focus works too if your team needs something different.
Farfetch'd is leaning toward the physical side (base 90 Attack). Fragile, can't afford to take many hits, too. Speed tells the real story. At base 60 Speed, it won't be moving first often. Fits the support role.
In Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon, Farfetch'd at 377 BST is a stepping stone. Evolve it when you can for a real stat jump.
Game Availability
Available since Red & Blue, Farfetchd appears in 20 games spanning 10 generations. Beyond its original form, it gained a Galarian form in Generation 8.
