In-Depth Analysis
With a base stat total of 485, Crustle plays as a slow bruiser that trades speed for raw hitting power. Its standout stat is Defense at 125, while Speed (45) is the clear soft spot — build sets that protect that weakness.
Its Bug, Rock typing leaves Crustle with 3 weaknesses against 2 resistances. Notably, it carries no 4× weaknesses, which makes it harder to punish. On offense, its STAB moves threaten 7 types for super-effective damage.
A catch rate of 75 puts Crustle in the moderate range — a few Great Balls usually get the job done. It levels on the Medium experience curve. Defeating it grants Defense +2 EVs, which is worth remembering when EV-training your own team.
