Breeding's the move. Body Slam and Crunch give Torracat options it can't learn any other way, and coverage across 7 types already covers a decent range on top of Overheat and Flare Blitz. The egg moves push it further.

Torracat Guide

  • In Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon, Torracat isn't fully evolved, so it's not built for competitive play. You'll want to evolve it into Incineroar to unlock its full potential. At 420 BST, it's a stepping stone rather than a team anchor.

  • In Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon, Torracat's biggest threats include Starmie (Water), Rhydon (Ground), and Tyranitar (Rock), all carrying super-effective STAB moves.

  • In Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon, Litten evolves into Torracat at level 17. Torracat evolves into Incineroar at level 34. Torracat is a middle-stage evolution in the Litten line.

  • In Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon, Run Intimidate on Torracat. It's the ability that defines how you build around it and the main reason it holds a competitive niche. Torracat also gets Blaze, but they don't compare.

  • In Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon, Intimidate is the hidden ability. It lowers opponents' Attack one stage upon entering battle. Worth hunting for if you want Torracat to compete at a higher level.

Game Availability

Introduced in Sun & Moon, Torracat has appeared in 4 games across 4 generations. Later debuts mean fewer total appearances, but it's been a consistent presence since its introduction.
