Understand the Muscle Gauge Mechanic

Buzzwole's Muscle Gauge is central to its gameplay. Knowing how it works and its effects are crucial to fully utilize Buzzwole's kit and strength. Since one moveset fills up the Muscle Gauge while the other consumes it, it is best to use the moves that fill up the Muscle Gauge first, then follow up with the other move.

Fill Up the Muscle Gauge with Moves

Trigger	Increment
Standard Attack	Each time a basic attack hits an opposing Pokemon, the muscle gauge charges by one (1) increment.
Mega Punch	If this move hits Pokemon from the opposing team, the user's muscle gauge increases by one (1) increment for each one that was hit.
Lunge	If this move hits Pokemon from the opposing team, the user's muscle gauge increases by one (1) increment for each one that was hit
Smack Down	If this move deals damage to Pokemon on the opposing team, the user's muscle gauge increases by one (1) increment for each one that was hit.

Perform attacks and use the moves listed above to quickly fill up the Muscle Gauge. When your Muscle Gauge is full, your attacks become stronger.

Moves that Consume the Muscle Gauge

Trigger	Effect
Fell Stinger	This move deals more damage the more muscle gauge increments are consumed.
Leech Life	The number of hits and the amount of damage dealt per hit increases the more muscle gauge increments are consumed.
Superpower	The damage dealt by this move and the shield effect it grants increases the more muscle gauge increments are consumed. Once upgraded, this move's cooldown resets each time the Muscle Gauge fills up.

The moves listed above consumes all the Muscle Gauge when used. Their effects and damage increase based on how much of the Muscle Gauge was consumed. Given this, it's best to fill up the Muscle Gauge entirely first before using any of these moves to maximize their damage and effects.

Leave Opponents Open with Disabling Moves

Buzzwole's whole kit revolves around isolating targets and engaging in brawls. Before you do your combos, however, be sure to take advantage of Buzzwole's disabling moves first to get a better shot of landing your attacks.

Reposition Opponents with Superpower

Superpower allows you to displace one enemy and put them in a disadvantageous position. It is a great way to isolate single targets for you and your allies to pick them off easily. Since you will be body slamming opponents in a specified direction, it is best to pick up targets and slam them away from their goal zones to make it harder for them to fight back.

Superpower: Buzzwole Move Effect and Cooldown

Incapacitate Slippery Targets with Leech Life

Using Leech Life on a target will pin them down for a short time, enough for your allies to follow up with their attacks. Buzzwole will also be able to recover a decent amount of HP while the move is active. Use the move to shut down other All-Rounders or trap highly mobile Speedsters so that your team can take them out of the fight quickly.

One thing to note is that opponents incapacitated by Leech Life can break free from the move using an Eject Button. Since this interaction acts as a direct counter to the move, it is best to take note of opponents who are running the Battle Item during the initial loading screen before the match starts.

Leech Life: Buzzwole Move Effect and Cooldown

Actively Seek Out Opponents

Buzzwole's passive, Beast Boost, increases its movement speed and attack speed each time it defeats or assists in defeating an opposing Pokemon. Staying active throughout the game either by hunting targets or sticking with your allies is the best way to maximize its passive.

Use Unite Move as a Finisher

Buzzwole is invulnerable for a short time while airborne during Ultra Swole Slam. Coupled that with area of effect damage, then you got yourself a strong Unite Move that can tank multiple opponents. Moreover, Ultra Swole Slam will seek out an opponent with the lowest HP, making it great for landing the last hit without getting interrupted and synergizing with Beast Boost.

Ultra Swole Slam: Buzzwole Move Effect and Cooldown

Position Properly

Since Buzzwole needs to get close to its target first to perform its combos, you need to position properly before initiating. This is especially true when you're using Smack Down. You can use Eject Button to help you get a better position.

Superpower Persists Through Unstoppable Status Effect

If you use Superpower on targets that have the Unstoppable status effect, you can still cause damage even if you can't lift them. This is because the move's animation continues even when your target has immunity, dealing damage as a result.

Moreover, this interaction also happens against Boss Pokemon like Regieleki and Rayquaza.

Given this, the move isn't entirely useless against Pokemon that can gain immunities.

Even Matchups

Buzzwole can get the upper hand against these Pokemon as long as it can find a way to set up its combos and beat them down.

Close the Gap

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 Buzzwole. However, they can easily fall to Buzzwole's combos if it manages to get close to them. • When using Smack Down, it's best to use Eject Button to quickly get close to them and use the move. Once they get hit by Smack Down, always remember to follow up with Superpower or Leech Life to finish them off. • When using Lunge, use it to close the gap, then follow up with Superpower or Leech Life to finish them off. • If they still manage to survive, just use Ultra Swole Slam to finish them off.

Strike First

All-Rounders
How to Beat
• Much like Buzzwole, these Pokemon excel in close combat and rely mostly on their attacks or combos to deal damage. They are also durable enough to tank Buzzwole's damage. However, they do need to go toe to toe with Falinks to defeat it, making them perfect targets for Buzzwole's combos. Winning against them is a matter of being able to perform a combo first. • When using Smack Down, time the move when they get close enough, then follow up with Superpower or Leech Life. • When using Lunge, utilize the move's Attack reduction to weaken their damage (if they're an Attack-type Pokemon), then follow up with Superpower or Leech Life. It's also good to incorporate a few attacks in the combo to take advantage of Lunge's atack speed increase. • As a last resort, use Ultra Swole Slam to finish them off.

Catch Them When They Initiate

High-mobility Pokemon with Burst Damage
How to Beat
• These Pokemon are incredibly agile and deal high burst damage. However, they still need to get close to Buzzwole to take it down, putting them in range for the Pokemon's combos. Winning against them is a matter of catching them with Buzzwole's combos when they initiate. • When using Smack Down, just make sure to hit them when they dive in to stop their momentum, then immediately follow up with Superpower or Leech Life. • When using Lunge, either use one charge to dodge their moves when they initiate, then use another to get close to them, and finish them off with Superpower or Leech Life. • If they still manage to survive, just use Ultra Swole Slam to finish them off.

Gourp Up with Allies

Highly Durable Pokemon
How to Beat
• These Pokemon are extremely durable, making it difficult for Buzzwole to take them down alone. With that, it's best to group up with allies to bring them down with the help of Buzzwole. • Use Smack Down to stun them or Lunge to stay on top of them, then follow up with Superpower or Leech Life to keep them disabled and deplete their HP.

Easy Matchups for Buzzwole

These Pokemon are easy matchups for Buzzwole either because they have little to no means of escaping Buzzwole's combos or are too fragile to survive it.

Take Them Out First

Supporters
How to Beat
• These Pokemon usually stick with their allies and rarely venture alone. Although they themselves pose no threat to Buzzwole, their support capabilities makes them valuable during fights. • It's best to take them out first using Smack Down or Lunge and Superpower or Leech Life to remove their team's support. • If they still manage to survive, just use Ultra Swole Slam to finish them off.

Group Up with Allies

Highly Durable Pokemon
How to Beat
