This guide covers MAKUHITA in Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness, detailing its stats, weaknesses, and strategies for battling.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    MAKUHITA can be found in the Phenac City Pokémon Center as a Shadow Pokémon.
  2. 2
    It is a key Pokémon for the player to purify and add to their team.
  3. 3
    Players will battle MAKUHITA multiple times throughout the story as it is used by various Shadow Pokémon Trainers.
Tips
  • Focus on its weaknesses: Flying, Psychic, and Fairy-type moves are super effective against MAKUHITA.
  • Utilize its slow speed to your advantage by using moves that hit last but deal heavy damage.
  • Consider using Pokémon with high Special Defense to counter its strong physical attacks.
  • Purifying MAKUHITA can unlock powerful moves and increase its stats.

Purifying MAKUHITA will allow it to be used in battle and potentially unlock its signature move, Close Combat, upon purification. It can also be traded for other Pokémon or used in battles against other players.
