In-Depth Analysis
Qwilfish's 440 base stat total marks it as a balanced Pokémon with a flexible stat spread. Attack (95) carries most matchups, but a low Special Attack stat of 55 means careful positioning matters.
Its Dark, Poison typing leaves Qwilfish with 1 weakness against 4 resistances and 1 full immunity. Notably, it carries no 4× weaknesses, which makes it harder to punish. On offense, its STAB moves threaten 4 types for super-effective damage.
A low catch rate of 45 makes Qwilfish a genuinely tough catch; bring strong balls and status moves. It levels on the Medium experience curve. Defeating it grants Attack +1 EVs, which is worth remembering when EV-training your own team.
