In-Depth Analysis
With a base stat total of 495, Kabutops plays as a balanced Pokémon with a flexible stat spread. Its standout stat is Attack at 115, while HP (60) is the clear soft spot — build sets that protect that weakness.
Defensively, the Rock, Water combination gives Kabutops 5 resistances and 4 weaknesses to plan around. Watch out for Grass moves in particular — they land for 4× damage. Offensively it pressures 6 types with super-effective STAB coverage.
A low catch rate of 45 makes Kabutops a genuinely tough catch; bring strong balls and status moves. It levels on the Medium experience curve. Defeating it grants Attack +2 EVs, which is worth remembering when EV-training your own team.
