Quagsire

Water Fish Pokémon

WaterGround

QUAGSIRE hunts for food by leaving its mouth wide open in water and waiting for its prey to blunder in unaware. Because the POKéMON does not move, it does not get very hungry.

Strategy Overview

Quagsire is the second-best Water / Ground type Pokemon in the format after Swampert. With worse stats and fewer tools in its movepool to handle Skarmory and mixed attackers, it relies on Water Absorb to carve out its niche: the compression of much of the same physical walling that Swampert offers with the ability to better switch into powerful STAB Water-type attacks uniquely enables Quagsire to patch the weaknesses of slower TSS teams.
