High-firepower meta Pokémon that hit it super-effectively by type (estimated, not battle data)
Based on real ladder matchup statistics and expert community assessments (data snapshot 2026-08)
Bastiodon sits at a 0.02% usage rate in singles, ranked 238th. Its 30 base Speed and 52 base Attack leave it almost always outpaced and unable to threaten back. While 168 Defense paired with Sturdy lets it survive a single full-power hit, the 4x weaknesses to Fighting and Ground mean any faster opponent carrying those moves removes it outright.
At 0.02% usage and rank 262, Bastiodon is a fringe pick in doubles as well. It only fits into a narrow niche on dedicated stall structures. Its 168 Defense and 138 Special Defense, combined with Sturdy, let it eat a single fully powered hit on prediction; the 42.6% Chesto Berry and 19.7% Leftovers rates show it relies on waking from sleep or gradual recovery to stay on the field. The Careful 32/2/0/0/32/0 spread splits EVs between physical and special bulk to blunt the 4x Fighting and Ground weaknesses. Its 30 Speed still fails to outpace anything in a fast doubles meta, so any unblocked spread move into its quadrants removes it before it can act.
Playstyle:In doubles Bastiodon plays around Sturdy to predict and eat a single hit. Chesto Berry at 42.6% and Leftovers at 19.7% show it leans on sleep recovery or passive healing to stay alive. Body Press at 24.2% combined with Iron Defense at 18.2% is the rare route it uses to break through bulk. Wide Guard at 7.5% and Protect at 5.2% offer predictive protection, but 30 Speed means any unblocked control move into its weakness quadrants ends its turn before it acts. There is almost no margin for error.
