Strategy Overview

Gabite is among an elite few NFE Pokemon that are actually viable in the UU tier thanks to its excellent typing and well-distributed stats. Its offensive nature makes it a safe pick for any offensive team. Gabite sports the second highest Attack stat among all Dragon-types in the UU tier, right behind Shelgon. Furthermore, Gabite has an immunity to Electric-type attacks, which is a useful quality to have on offensive teams. Although you might find Gabite's power a bit mediocre at times, it can still pack a punch with the right support.
