Its greatest asset is Attack — among the highest in the entire Pokédex. This is the final form of its line — it does not evolve any further. Defensively it can rely on 3 weaknesses and 4 resistances.
Base stats
Last column: what percentage of 1084 species and regional forms have a lower value. Strong point: Attack.
A nature can improve this entry further: its boost hits hardest on Attack, the stat in which this species already leads. Which nature does that — see the list of natures.
Which nature to choose
It hits physically: its Attack (147) is 87 points higher than its Sp. Atk. So the drop hits a stat the set usually does not use at all.
- Jolly +Spe · −SpA Its Speed is higher than 83% of species — ten percent more lifts it past some of the benchmarks that decide who moves first.
- Adamant +Atk · −SpA If you already outspeed what you want to outspeed, those ten percent are better spent on hitting power.
- Hidden Power and Weather Ball still deal damage based on Sp. Atk. If either of them is going into the set, lowering Sp. Atk is no longer free.
A conclusion drawn from base stats alone — a specific moveset can reverse it. All 25 natures.

How players use it
Data from 44,274 ranked battles on Smogon (Gen 9 UU, 2026-07). These are not numbers from the game — they are player habits. Gen 9 UU is one tier lower: it is played without the Pokémon most often used in OU, so the same species hold completely different places here.
Rank 70 among 274 Pokémon in use — it is on 1.57% of teams.
Each row is a separate distribution, not a single set: the most common item and the most common move do not have to appear on the same Pokémon.
Pokédex entry
They are kind but can be relentless when defending territory. They challenge foes with tusks that can cut steel.

TCG cards (5)
All Haxorus cards →Haxorus has 5 cards in 5 sets. The oldest of them are shown below.
Breeding
All Egg Groups →Offspring can come from 130 species from the same Egg Groups (with opposite genders) or from Ditto. Below are the first 12 by Pokédex number.
The Egg hatches after 40 cycles, which is roughly 10,500 steps. The exact cycle length depends on the game — newer titles shortened it noticeably — so treat this number as an order of magnitude, not a countdown. Having the Flame Body Ability in your party halves the wait.
