Pokédex · VIII (Galar)

Glastrier#896

Strong point: Attack — among the highest in the entire Pokédex. Its weakest point is Speed — lower than 93% of species. Overall it is one of the stronger species — above 91% of the Pokédex. It does not evolve: it does not come from anything and does not change into anything. On defense it has 4 weaknesses and 1 resistance. This is a Legendary Pokémon: one per game, no offspring. Very hard to catch — bring plenty of Poké Balls and something that puts it to sleep or paralyzes it.

Last column: what percentage of 1084 species and regional forms have a lower value. Strong point: Attack; weak point: Speed.

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 (145) is 80 points higher than its Sp. Atk. So the drop hits a stat the set usually does not use at all.

  • Adamant +Atk · −SpA It moves second and nothing will change that, so the whole boost goes into power.
  • Brave +Atk · −Spe The Trick Room version: with the turn order reversed, the slower the better, and Gyro Ball calculates its power from exactly this lowered Speed.
  • 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 146 among 274 Pokémon in use — it is on 0.2% 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

Glastrier emits intense cold from its hooves. It’s also a belligerent Pokémon—anything it wants, it takes by force.

Glastrier does not breed. You cannot get an Egg from it — this is how the games treat almost all Legendary and Mythical species.
