Strategy Overview

Makuhita is a Fighting-type Pokemon with rather low stats in everything but HP and Attack. With an ability in Thick Fat, Makuhita gains resistances to Fire- and Ice-type attacks, making threats such as Houndour easy to deal with. It was given a large physical movepool to complement its decent Attack stat, including all of the elemental punches. However, Makuhita has a tough time against physical walls, such as Gligar, whose stats and typing allow it to easily counter Makuhita (as long as it does not come in on an Ice Punch). Overall, Makuhita is a decent Pokemon with, like every other Pokemon, its own flaws.
