Strategy Overview

Solrock's high Defense and almost unique typing allow it to check threatening Pokemon such as Stoutland and Rapidash, making it a decent wall in the PU metagame. Unfortunately, it is weak to four common types, and only one of those, Dark, is primarily physical. Solrock also has an excellent ability in Levitate, allowing it to check Ground-types, such as Golem, and Pokemon that rely on Earthquake to hit Rock-types. Its great support movepool, which includes Will-O-Wisp, Stealth Rock, and Morning Sun, helps its walling capabilities, and access to Light Screen, Reflect, and a fast Explosion allow it to successfully pull off a dual screens set.
