In-Depth Analysis
Gorebyss totals 485 across its base stats, profiling as a slow bruiser that trades speed for raw hitting power. Lean on its Special Attack (114) when planning sets, and cover for its weaker Speed (52).
Its Water typing leaves Gorebyss with 2 weaknesses against 4 resistances. Notably, it carries no 4× weaknesses, which makes it harder to punish. On offense, its STAB moves threaten 3 types for super-effective damage.
A catch rate of 60 puts Gorebyss in the moderate range — a few Great Balls usually get the job done. It levels on the Slow Then Very Fast experience curve. Defeating it grants Special Attack +2 EVs, which is worth remembering when EV-training your own team.
