In-Depth Analysis
Marshtomp's 405 base stat total marks it as a balanced Pokémon with a flexible stat spread. Attack (85) carries most matchups, but a low Speed stat of 50 means careful positioning matters.
Defensively, the Water, Ground combination gives Marshtomp 4 resistances, 1 immunity, and 1 weakness 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 Marshtomp a genuinely tough catch; bring strong balls and status moves. It levels on the Medium Slow experience curve. Defeating it grants Attack +2 EVs, which is worth remembering when EV-training your own team.
