Build Notes
Kingambit rounds out the backline with Defiant to punish Intimidate users like Incineroar, which are common in the current meta. Chople Berry lets it survive a Close Combat from Sneasler or similar Fighting-type threats. Adamant with 25 Atk SP and 32 HP SP balances power and bulk. Kowtow Cleave never misses and hits for strong neutral coverage; Sucker Punch provides priority against fast threats. Protect scouts Choice-locked opponents. Kingambit's dark typing makes it immune to opponent Kingambit Sucker Punch, a relevant interaction in high-ladder games.
