In-Depth Analysis
Carkol's 410 base stat total marks it as a balanced Pokémon with a flexible stat spread. Defense (90) carries most matchups, but a low Speed stat of 50 means careful positioning matters.
Its Rock, Fire typing leaves Carkol with 4 weaknesses against 7 resistances. Watch out for Ground, Water moves in particular — they land for 4× damage. On offense, its STAB moves threaten 6 types for super-effective damage.
A catch rate of 120 puts Carkol in the moderate range — a few Great Balls usually get the job done. It levels on the Medium Slow experience curve. Defeating it grants Defense +2 EVs, which is worth remembering when EV-training your own team.
