Strategy Overview

Mudkip struggles to justify itself a spot on competitive teams, due to a poor Speed tier and limited movepool. Although it possesses above-average stats all-around, Corphish and Carvanha are better Water-type attackers that bring additional coverage along with more potent offenses. Chinchou's Electric typing along with Staryu's access to reliable recovery make them better defensive options than Mudkip.
