Stats & Training
Attack and Sp. Atk carry most of Remoraid's stat budget. HP's the obvious dump stat. Common in the wild and yields 1 Sp. Atk EV. Follows a medium-fast 1M XP curve.
Using its dorsal fin as a suction pad, it clings to a MANTINE’s underside to scavenge for leftovers.
It has superb accuracy. The water it shoots out can strike even moving prey from more than 100 yards.
Remoraid Weakness
Remoraid's Water typing leaves it vulnerable to Electric and Grass. 4 resistances help offset the weaknesses. Just 2 weak spots to worry about, which keeps teambuilding straightforward.
