Leveling does the heavy lifting. Sirfetch'd picks up Leaf Blade and Brave Bird along the way, building toward a complete offensive set. TMs add coverage across 7 types, but the foundation's already strong by then.

Sirfetch'd Guide

  • For Legends: Z-A, we rate Sirfetch'd C-Tier: a niche pick in Legends: Z-A's meta. At 507 BST, it fits the cannon role. Firstimpression with Leek is the standard set.

  • In Legends: Z-A, watch for Aerodactyl (Flying), Espeon (Psychic), and Sylveon (Fairy) when using Sirfetch'd. They all hit it super-effectively with STAB.

  • Steadfast raises Speed one stage upon flinching. That's the one you want on Sirfetch'd. Scrappy is the hidden ability. Niche, but it has its uses.

  • At base 65 Speed, it won't be moving first often. On offense, Sirfetch'd is a physical attacker with base 135 Attack. Defensively? Enough bulk to take a hit or two. Best used as a cannon.

  • For Legends: Z-A, Sirfetch'd has answers, but so do you. Super-effective STAB from faster Pokemon is the simplest answer. Flying, Psychic, and Fairy-type attackers hit hardest.

Game Availability

Sirfetchd joined the series in Sword & Shield and has been available in 2 titles so far. With 3 generations of appearances, it's established itself despite the later start.
