Build Explanation |
---|
This is an offensive build that utilizes the effects of Shell Smash to increase X-Scissor's damage. It can also be modified a bit to give X-Scissor a chance to deal critical-hits. |
· Attack Weight provides Crustle with a large damage boost, particularly for X-Scissor. It's also easy to stack thanks to the mobility Crustle gets from Shell Smash. · Weakness Policy works well with Crustle's frontline/tank gameplay, increasing its Attack as it takes hits. It also gives a decent amount of damage and HP. · Focus Band improves Crustle's durability through increased defenses, which is transformed into more damage when the Pokemon uses Shell Smash, and acts as a survivability tool. · For a different offensive approach, Scope Lens and Razor Claw can be equipped instead of the other two, giving X-Scissor a chance to deal critical-hits for each attack. · Eject Button gives Crustle a quick repositioning tool, which can also be used to set up X-Scissor. · The build's Boost Emblem loadout should consist of 6 White Emblems for maximum HP and 6 Brown Emblems for additional damage. · This can be achieved by equipping at least two (2) Emblems that are both White and Brown. · Equip Emblems that improve Attack or Critical-Hit Rate for more damage. · Sp. Atk and Movement Speed can be freely traded for the other stats. |

Weakness Policy + Attack Weight (6 Stacks) |

Since the build is centered on X-Scissor, equipping items that will maximize its damage is the ideal item combination. Focus Band is a core item for the build, leaving only two (2) items left for consideration.
As the results show, Weakness Policy and a fully-stacked Attack Weight will produce the best results for the build. Weakness Policy works well with Crustle's tank gameplay and Attack Weight can be stacked quickly in the early game thanks to Shell Smash.
As for alternatives, although not shown in the test, replacing both items with Scope Lens and Razor Claw would be a great option. Both items will give X-Scissor a chance to deal critical-hit for each attack, dealing more damage than any of the results.
These damage tests are conducted using the Training Dummy in Practice Mode.

Build Explanation |
---|
This is a full-on tank build that can be used with any move combination. It can also be modified slightly to balance Crustle's damage and durability. |
· Exp. Share helps Crustle and its lane partner to level up faster, particularly in the early game. It also gives the Pokemon a decent amount of movement speed. · Focus Band improves Crustle's durability through increased defenses and acts as a survivability tool. · Buddy Barrier gives Crustle a hefty amount of HP. It also goes well Rubble Rouser, adding another layer of shield. · For a more balanced build, consider replacing Exp. Share or Buddy Barrier with Float Stone. · Potion will be the default battle item for the build to give Crustle a reliable source of healing, allowing the Pokemon to tank more damage. · However, if Rock Tomb is learned instead of Shell Smash, X Speed would be the ideal item to equip, giving the Pokemon a similar effect. · The build's Boost Emblem loadout should consist of 6 White Emblems for maximum HP and 6 Brown Emblems for additional damage. · This can be achieved by equipping at least two (2) Emblems that are both White and Brown. · Equip Emblems that improve Attack or HP for more damage or durability. · Sp. Atk and Critical-Hit Rate can be freely traded for the other stats. |
Item | Explanation |
---|---|
Exp. Share | Exp. Share helps Crustle and its lane partner level up faster, especially in the early game. It also gives the Pokemon more movement speed. |
Attack Weight | Attack Weight compliments Crustle's aggressive scoring playstyle, pushing for early lane pressure. |
Aeos Cookie | Aeos Cookie adds more bulk to Crustle in the form of more HP. |
Score Shield | Score Shield helps guard Crustle's more aggressive playstyle, complementary with using an Attack Weight. |
Buddy Barrier | Buddy Barrier provides extra shields on top of Crustle's Unite Move. This allows the Pokemon to become a walking fortress. |
Float Stone | Float Stone gives Crustle movement speed and damage simultaneously, giving the Pokemon some versatility. |
Focus Band | Focus Band compliments Crustle's passive, Sturdy, allowing Crustle to survive longer in fights. |
Scope Lens | Scope Lens can improve X-Scissor by giving it a chance to deal critical-hit for each attack, increasing its overall damage drastically. |
Razor Claw | Razor Claw works great with Shell Smash's low cooldown and usability, increasing Crustle's attack on top of the move's own effects. It also adds more critical-hit rate to X-Scissor. |
Weakness Policy | Weakness Policy is a great item that synergizes well with Crustle's innate durabiltiy thanks to its passive ability. With this, it can increase the potency of its auto-attacks. |
Item | Explanation |
---|---|
Goal-Getter | Goal-Getter makes scoring goals faster and easier. Combined with Shell Smash, the item enhances scoring capabilities. |
Eject Button | Eject Button is both an offensive and defensive tool for the build, allowing you to get a better position to use your moves or make an escape when things go awry. |
X Speed | X Speed is a great item for Crustle if it doesn't learn Shell Smash, giving it similar effects in terms of mobility. |
Potion | With Crustle's high HP, Potion allows Crustle to recover a significant amount of HP so it can stay in the fight longer. |
Move | Explanation |
---|---|
X-Scissor | X-Scissor deals decent damage, although not as powerful as Stealth Rock, and can put enemies in bad a position during fights. |
Shell Smash | Shell Smash is arguably Crustle's best move. It provides a massive boost to Crustle's damage output which improves Crustle's other moves, especially at low HP. |
This moveset turns Crustle's high defenses into raw damage. Shell Smash is a versatile move that suits Crustle's frontline gameplay. It converts a percentage of Crustle's Sp. Def and Defenses into damage, which works fine with either of the other moves. It also makes Cruslte incredibly mobile and resilient to disables and debuffs, perfect for a tank. X-Scissor is Crustle's best damage move. It has the potential to deal massive damage since it can deal critical-hits, particularly if the Pokemon equips an item that increases Critical-Hit Rate. It can also stun opponents when they're shoved towards a wall, turning it into a crowd control move.
For a more support-style moveset, picking Rock Tomb and Stealth Rock equips Crustle with some decent disables, which are great in teamfights.

Crustle's damage move upgrade will unlock when it reaches level 6. Though you can practically pick any upgrade you want, we found that certain move combinations are needed, especially if you are taking on a specific playstyle.
During the early game, Crustle's first moveset offers great steal potential for denying exp from opponents. You can use Fury Cutter to get the last hit and secure Wild Pokemon. Additionally, you can utilize the range from Rock Slide to snipe down targets from a distance.
Crustle can be played in two ways: a support or a straight-on bruiser. Depending on your team composition and your build, Crustle can alter the playing field or deliver devastating damage.
As a support, Divide and Conquer becomes Crustle's main gameplay. Use Rock Tomb to cut off one opponent from his allies, then go for the kill with the help of your team. Despite being a support, Crustle can still deal a good amount of damage.
As a bruiser, Crustle can use Shell Smash to trade some of its defense into offense to deal a lot of damage. This also gives you a certain level of mobility to initiate fights, making Crustle into a straight-up fighter.
Rushing to level 6 for Rock Tomb and either X-Scissor or Stealth Rock allows for early lane control. Use Rock Tomb to either cut off opposing Pokemon from their farm, block them from retreating, or from defending their goal. Stealth Rock is especially great for incidental damage while teams clash.
Using Rock Tomb to block off allied goal zones allows you to hinder enemy movement while giving time for reinforcements to come and help. Alternatively, A well-placed wall can block opponents so you and your teammates can freely score. Moreover, Rock Tomb can trap retreating enemies so your team can finish them off.
Rock Tomb: Crustle Move Effect and Cooldown
Rush farming to level 6 to unlock Shell Smash and X-Scissor as quickly as possible. Focus on farming and stealing your opponents' farm when possible. Rushing to level 6 will allow Crustle to easily pressure opposing pokemon in a lane with damage and knockback. Shell Smash, in particular, gives Crustle insane amounts of mobility, making it hard for opponents to catch up to it.
X-Scissor can be used to body block enemies that are rushing to defend their goal while your team safely scores. Alternatively, you can push opponents into your goal zones so that they are at a massive disadvantage. When things go awry, however, be sure to use Shell Smash to secure your escape.
X-Scissor: Crustle Move Effect and Cooldown
Shell Smash greatly boosts Crustle's movement speed allowing for quickly getting to Wild Pokemon spawns farming or retreating from a losing fight. Shell Smash can be used aggressively to secure KOs or to go in and out of enemy goal zones to score quickly. Given that the move effects last for 5 seconds, you can easily maintain the speed and damage bonus.
Shell Smash: Crustle Move Effect and Cooldown
Shell Smash can mitigate the slow effect from the enemy's Lane Flux, making it easier to traverse the enemy's side of the lane. Utilize this strategy to steal their berries so you can disrupt their chance to heal.
In the 7-minute mark, Drednaw spawns on Bottom Lane and Regieleki on Top Lane. Having high defense and HP, Crustle can practically sustain all the damage while its teammates bombard the objectives with damage. Since these bosses can only move in a specific area, a Stealth Rock can help chip away at their HP. Moreover, use Rock Tomb to block opposing Pokemon from interfering, or push them away with an X-Scissor to help your team secure these Pokemon and continue pushing your respective lane.
Due to the amount of pressure and control Crustle offers, your team can reliably push past enemy goals and invade their farm. Given its high HP, Defense, and ability to block opponents or get out to safety easily, it is best to have Crustle in the frontlines of the fight and maneuver around team clashes accordingly to set up walls or knock back key targets.
Sturdy: Crustle Ability Effects
Rubble Rouser gives Crustle a huge amount of shields once activated. It is essentially a safety move that can provide you with enough sturdiness to avoid getting knocked down. Alternatively, you can activate the move in the middle of a clash and take advantage of the damage-over-time effect as a counterattack.

Ranged, Fragile Pokemon with High Damage |
---|
How to Beat |
• These Pokemon prefer to keep their distance from opponents when fighting. They also have high damage potential that can be dangerous for Crustle. However, they are fragile and can get knocked out by Crustle fast. • When using Shell Smash, use the move to head straight for them, then follow up with X-Scissor to knock them out. • When using Stealth Rock, force them to relocate by trapping them first with Rock Tomb, then following up with it. • Use Rubble Rouser to stay alive longer when Crustle's HP is low. |
All-Rounder |
---|
How to Beat |
• These Pokemon excel in close combat and rely mostly on their attacks or combos to deal damage. They are also durable enough to tank Crustle's damage. However, they do need to go toe to toe with Crustle to defeat it, putting them in range for the Pokemon's moves. • When using Shell Smash, activate it first to gain more damage, then disrupt their attacks or combos using X-Scissor. • When using Stealth Rock, force them to relocate by trapping them first with Rock Tomb, then following up with it. • Alternatively, just use Rubble Rouser when they decide to attack and fight them head on. |
High-mobility Pokemon with Burst Damage |
---|
How to Beat |
• These Pokemon are incredibly agile and deal high burst damage. However, Crustle can tank their damage and easily retaliate thanks to Sturdy. • When using Shell Smash, activate the move and just head straight for them, then follow up with X-Scissor. • When using Stealth Rock, place it in their path to discourage them from approaching, or wait for them to dash in, then trap them with Rock Tomb and follow up with Stealth Rock. • Use Rubble Rouser to stay alive longer when Crustle's HP is low. |
Supporters |
---|
How to Beat |
• These Pokemon usually stick with their allies and rarely venture alone. Although they themselves pose no threat to Crustle, their support capabilities makes them valuable during fights. • Take advantage of them being in close proximity to each other by either heading straight for them using Shell Smash, then following up with X-Scissor, or trapping them with Rock Tomb, then placing Stealth Rock on their position. • Use Rubble Rouser to stay alive longer when Crustle's HP is low. |
Highly Durable Pokemon |
---|
How to Beat |
• Much like Crustle, these Pokemon are extremely durable, making it difficult for the Pokemon to take them down alone. With that, it's best to group up with allies to bring them down with the help of Crustle. • When using Shell Smash, use it to stay in front of them, then push them back using X-Scissor. • When using Stealth Rock, trap them first with Rock Tomb, then place Stealth Rock on their position. |
Crustle has enough offense that it can go toe-to-toe with these Pokemon. Once it catches them in Stealth Rock or disable them with X-Scissor, it will have a high chance of knocking these Pokemon down.
