In-Depth Analysis
With a base stat total of 510, Mandibuzz plays as a defensive Pokémon that shines at absorbing hits. Its standout stat is HP at 110, while Special Attack (55) is the clear soft spot — build sets that protect that weakness.
Its Dark, Flying typing leaves Mandibuzz with 4 weaknesses against 3 resistances and 2 full immunities. Notably, it carries no 4× weaknesses, which makes it harder to punish. On offense, its STAB moves threaten 5 types for super-effective damage.
A catch rate of 60 puts Mandibuzz in the moderate range — a few Great Balls usually get the job done. It levels on the Slow experience curve. Defeating it grants Special Attack +2 EVs, which is worth remembering when EV-training your own team.
