Base Stats

Hydreigon's 125 Special Attack headlines a well-rounded 92/90/90 defensive frame and a usable 98 Speed. Nothing here is broken, but the combination of strong offense, good bulk and Levitate immunity to Ground makes it durable enough to pivot and pressure repeatedly rather than fold after one hit.

Type Matchups

Abilities

• Levitate — immunity to Ground moves, including spread Earthquake. In a doubles format full of Earthquake and Ground coverage this is a major selling point: Hydreigon can stand next to a partner that clicks Earthquake without taking a scratch, and it never fears Ground STAB.

Best Moveset

Hydreigon's movepool is deep and supports several builds. The strongest options for doubles:

Special attacker

• Dark Pulse — reliable Dark STAB with flinch chance, the better pick over Snarl when you want damage.
• Draco Meteor — nuke-grade Dragon STAB; Dragon Pulse is the spammable alternative.
• Heat Wave — spread Fire coverage that hits the Steel and Grass types resisting its STABs.
• Protect — doubles staple for safety and scouting.

Support / pivot

• Snarl — spread Special-Attack drop that softens the whole opposing side.
• Tailwind — speed control for slower teammates.
• Taunt or Nasty Plot — shut down setup, or boost into a sweep.
• U-turn — momentum and chip while pivoting out.

Other notable tools include Flamethrower, Earth Power, Flash Cannon, Roost, Thunder Wave and Tera Blast.

Suggested SP Spread

With the Champions SP system (66 points, max 32 per stat), an attacking Hydreigon maxes Special Attack and invests the rest in Speed to outrun the 98-and-below tier, with an offensive Stat Alignment. A bulkier support build can shift points into HP and Special Defense and run Snarl + Tailwind instead. Dial in the exact numbers in the PikaChampions team builder.

Competitive Role in Regulation M-A

Hydreigon is a glue special attacker that rarely feels dead weight. Levitate turns it into a free partner for Earthquake users, its STAB combination of Dark and Dragon is resisted by very little, and Heat Wave rounds out coverage against the Steel and Fairy answers. What separates it from a pure breaker is flexibility: the same Pokemon can switch to a Snarl-and-Tailwind support shell that weakens the opposing offense while enabling slower teammates. That dual identity, plus solid bulk and immunity to spread Ground, keeps it relevant on both offensive and balance teams in Regulation M-A.
