Strategy Overview
- Gigalith has great mixed bulk, due to its ability Sand Stream boosting its Special Defense to very high levels.
- Sand Stream also makes it an excellent check to weather teams, as it underspeeds a majority of its setters.
- Gigalith puts out consistent spread damage with its high Attack and STAB Rock Slide, which allows it to hit a lot of Pokemon for neutral damage.
- Gigalith's base 25 Speed makes it an excellent attacker in Trick Room. However, it does not require it to function, due to its great bulk.
- However, a Rock typing leaves Gigalith weak to many common types, and having no recovery means that it can be worn down fairly easily.
