Wo Chien Weakness in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet

Being a Dark and Grass-type pokemon means that Wo-Chien is weak to these attacks:

  • Fire
  • Fighting
  • Fairy
  • Flying
  • Poison 
  • Ice 

Wo-Chien is weakest when it faces Bug-type moves, that too, especially when it is faced with attacks like Megahorn and X-Scissors.

Wo-Chien has stats that can be said to be pretty remarkable, ranging from great defense to good offensive coverage. The area where it truly shines is to lower the attack of all of its opponent pokemons, basically, it has impressive Tablets of Ruin ability. Wo-Chien has decent speed, and this means that you might not even get a chance to make use of most of your attacks.

If you can or cannot ignore this ability of Wo-Chien is a different question, you are still better off if you use Physical attacks as this pokemon’s highest stat is Special Defense.

If you have been lucky enough to get a Scizor, then you already have the perfect opponent for Wo-Chien and its defensive abilities. We recommend that you do not actually use the Bug types when you are going against it for the first time, and that is especially for the cases where you want to capture it and not defeat it. If have a Heracross, then it is best to save it for the online matches, and if possible, try taking advantage of its Moxie or Guts abilities. 

That is all there is to know about Wo-Chien Weaknesses in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet. Stay tuned for further updates!
