Stats & Training
Hakamo-o's spread isn't flashy. Defense leads, HP trails, 1 stats clear the bar. Tough to catch and worth 2 Defense EVs, on a slow 1.25M XP grind.
The scaleless, scarred parts of its body are signs of its strength. It shows them off to defeated opponents.
Before attacking its enemies, it clashes its scales together and roars. Its sharp claws shred the opposition.
Hakamo-o Weakness
Hakamo O's Dragon/Fighting typing leaves it vulnerable to Fairy, Ice, Flying, Psychic, and Dragon. Fairy hits land at 4x, so they're the biggest threat. 7 resistances give it solid defensive coverage on top of that.

Scarlet & Violet Evolution
Hakamo O is the middle stage between Jangmo O and Kommo O. It's a three-stage line with one more evolution to go. For breeding, takes forever to hatch with plenty of partners via one egg group. So far, Defense got the biggest boost (+25 from Jangmo O). View every chain in the Evolution Chart.
How to Evolve
Breeding
Breed with Hakamo-o to get Jangmo O eggs using 65 partners from the Dragon egg group.
Scarlet & Violet Hakamo-o Best Moveset
Still unevolved, still relevant. Hakamo O's Eviolite bulk with max HP and Defense EVs creates a defensive profile that punches above its stage. Bulletproof adds passive value. Drain Punch gives it offensive presence.

Without TMs, Hakamo O's movepool is bare bones. With them, you get coverage across 8 types on top of Focus Punch and Draco Meteor for STAB. The natural kit handles basics, but TMs are doing the real work.

How to Get Hakamo-o in Scarlet & Violet
Hakamo-o isn't available in the wild in Scarlet & Violet. Start by transferring Jangmo-o from Sun, Ultra Sun, or Sword. The evolution path from Jangmo-o to Hakamo-o is covered in the steps below.
Hakamo-o Guide
In Scarlet & Violet, Hakamo-o isn't fully evolved, so it's not built for competitive play. At 420 BST, it's a stepping stone rather than a team anchor.
In Scarlet & Violet, watch for Sylveon (Fairy), Weavile (Ice), and Braviary (Flying) when using Hakamo-o. They all hit it super-effectively with STAB. Sylveon is the most dangerous since Fairy moves deal 4x damage. Psychic and Dragon-type attackers are also a problem. With 5 weakness types, most competitive teams carry at least one counter.
Bulletproof protects against bullet, ball, and bomb-based moves. That's the one you want on Hakamo-o. Overcoat is the hidden ability. Niche, but it has its uses. Soundproof works too if your team needs something different.
In Scarlet & Violet, Hakamo-o fills the balanced role. It's a physical attacker with base 75 Attack. At base 65 Speed, it won't be moving first often. And it's enough bulk to take a hit or two.
Game Availability
Introduced in Sun & Moon, Hakamo O has appeared in 4 games across 4 generations. Later debuts mean fewer total appearances, but it's been a consistent presence since its introduction.
