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 2026-05)
Conkeldurr sits at 0.76% usage at high ladder, ranked 88th — a genuine niche pick rather than a mainstay. Its Fighting typing provides targeted coverage: commentary identifies it as a purpose-built check to Archaludon, Dark-types, and bulky physical attackers, paired with Starmie-Mega to form a complementary core. Speed of 45 means it relies on Mach Punch or team support to get damage out reliably.
Playstyle:Standard set runs Adamant with Black Belt (53.2%) or Focus Sash (28.2%), Iron Fist ability (82.3%). Mach Punch (25%) provides priority, Drain Punch (17.2%) sustains HP, Ice Punch (17%) adds coverage, Thunder Punch covers Water/Flying. EV spreads heavily invest in HP and Attack. Top players note that Mega Starmie's special build lures in Archaludon, and Conkeldurr steps in as the dedicated answer to Archaludon, Dark-types, and bulky physical attackers — described by one champion builder as the team's MVP in that role.
Conkeldurr registers 0.41% usage at high doubles ladder (rank 103) — firmly niche territory, with a win rate around 47.7% that falls below average. It has 13 tournament appearances, suggesting limited but real competitive uptake. Double utility comes from Wide Guard blocking spread moves, Mach Punch finishing low-HP targets, and reliable Fighting coverage, but its Speed 45 means it requires Trick Room from Farigiraf or Tailwind support to operate effectively.
Playstyle:Doubles sets favor Brave (14.4%) or Adamant (12.4%) natures with Black Belt (50.1%) or Leftovers (20.6%). Wide Guard (9.5%) and Protect (9.1%) are added to the moveset compared to singles. Iron Fist remains the dominant ability (82.3%). Common partners: Kingambit, Farigiraf (Trick Room), Whimsicott. Commentary notes that under Trick Room, Drain Punch acts as priority healing and then deals heavy damage again on the follow-up.
