Seismitoad's destructive power comes from its quick special attacks and giving it a Life Orb will boost its overall attack power.
The type variety of Seismitoad's special attacks would also benefit from giving it an Expert Belt, increasing their super effectiveness.
Scald | A Water-type attack with 100% Accuracy, that can also burn. |
---|---|
Sludge Bomb | Has a higher probability of poisoning than Sludge Wave. |
Toxic | Converts to Max Guard when Dynamaxed. Best used when opponent switches Pokemon. |
Rain Dance | Allows activation of Swift Swim's Spd. boost, without the need for Max Geyser. |
Icy Wind | Lower your opponent's Spd, though its power is low. |
Nature | Adamant (+Atk, -SpAtk) |

EV Spread | HP 4 / Atk. 252 / Spd. 252 |
Final Stat Values | HP 181 / Atk. 161 / Def. 95 / Sp.Def. 95 / Spd. 126 |
Ability | Swift Swim |
Held Item |
Life Orb
Expert Belt |
Moveset | ・
Liquidation
・ Earthquake ・ Power Whip ・ Brick Break |
These values are from base stats and ideal EVs, excluding external factors.
Like its special attacker moveset, Seismitoad's physical attack damage and super effectiveness can be increased with a Life Orb or an Expert Belt respectively.
Poison Jab | Effective against Fairy-types. |
---|---|
Drain Punch | A Fighting-type move than recovers HP. |
Ice Punch | Super effective against Dragon-types. |
Bounce | Converts to Max Airstream, increasing Spd. without the need for rain. |
Rain Dance | Allows activation of Swift Swim's Spd. boost, without the need for Max Geyser. |
Toxic | Converts to Max Guard when Dynamaxed. Best used when opponent switches Pokemon. |
Seismitoad's special and physical attack movesets have similar final stat values, so you can rely on both movesets to give you an advantage during a battle. Both movesets also give Seismitoad a wide range of type advantages, allowing you to exploit your opponent's weaknesses.
The Swift Swim Ability doubles Seismitoad's speed in the rain. Used with the alternate move, Rain Dance, you can potentially attack first with the increased damage of your other water-type moves.
Potentially attacking first with these speed boosts is useful against high-powered opponents, like Hydreigon, known to have one of the highest base special attacks.
Seismitoad is especially vulnerable to grass type attacks, which deal 4x damage. Additionally, Seismitoad can be easily overpowered by physical and special attacks because of its low defense and special defense values.
