  • In Winds & Waves, Wailmer's biggest threats include Manectric (Electric) and Venusaur (Grass), all carrying super-effective STAB moves. Only 2 weaknesses means fewer dedicated counters to worry about.

  • Water Veil is the go-to ability for Wailmer. It prevents burns. Its hidden ability Pressure can work in specific setups. Oblivious is the other option. Pick based on what your team needs.

  • Wailmer is a mixed attacker with base 70 Attack and 70 Sp. Atk. Enough bulk to take a hit or two, too. Speed tells the real story. At base 60 Speed, it won't be moving first often.
