Strategy Overview

Despite the high number of other offensive Water-types in the tier, Crawdaunt makes a place for itself by being one of the most threatening wallbreakers in the tier thanks to a combination of good dual STAB types, Adaptability, a high Attack stat, and a good offensive movepool. However, Crawdaunt is very slow and frail, making it susceptible to many of the faster Pokemon in the tier that can revenge kill it with ease and leaving it heavily reliant on its priority move, Aqua Jet, to be able to damage these Pokemon.
