Garchomp’s Gameplay
Garchomp’s Ability, Rough Skin, means it can sometimes cause damage to Pokémon that hit it, so opponents that attack Garchomp carelessly may just get struck back. What’s more, using Dig lets Garchomp sneak-attack its opponents from underground.
Garchomp’s Unite Move is Livid Outrage, an attack in which Garchomp gives into its furious rage and attacks its opponents.
