Strategy Overview

Feraligatr has always lived in the shadow of mighty and majestic Gyarados. Because Gyarados sports Intimidate or Moxie, as well as higher Attack and Speed stats, one would wonder what qualities Feraligatr has over the Atrocious Pokemon. While Feraligatr used to be inferior, it has picked up a gift from the heavens in the form of its Dream World ability, Sheer Force. That, along with its superior movepool and lack of weakness to Stealth Rock, allows Feraligatr to stand out from its fellow physical Water-types.
