Stats and Stat Score

Castform has 102 HP, 107 speed and a 1.08x attack multiplier. The multiplier scales every move it uses, so it is the number to watch.

Compared with the whole roster, its HP is about average, its speed is about average and its attack is below average. Weighting attack at half and HP and speed at a quarter each gives the Stat Score of 44.2, which puts it at rank 585 overall, rank 75 of 135 among Hoenn Pokemon and rank 71 of 120 Normal-types. The score comes from the game's stat table, not from playtests, so read it together with the best Pokemon guide.

Castform moves

Pokemon that are not starters begin with the signature move of their first type, so Castform starts every run with Tackle: charges in an arc at everything in front of you.

The level-up cards can then offer 8 different moves: the 8 Normal moves that every Pokemon shares. Moves level up to level 5 and can evolve once you also take the stat card they need, which is covered in the move evolution guide. The permanent Repertoire upgrade adds a second, random starting move; see the upgrades guide.

Weaknesses and resistances

Castform takes extra damage from Fighting (1.6x). It resists Ghost (0.3x). The remaining 16 of 18 types deal normal damage. The chart is softer than the main games: a super-effective hit is x1.6, a resisted hit x0.6 and an immunity x0.3, and two types multiply with each other inside the range 0.3 to 2.4. See the type chart guide for every matchup.

The multipliers apply to the damage you take, and enemies attack with the first type listed for them, so the dangerous enemies for Castform are the ones whose first type is Fighting. Boss shots carry their first type too. Weather does not change these numbers, but it changes your own damage; see the weather guide. There is no same-type bonus, so Normal moves do not hit harder just because Castform shares the type.

How to get Castform

Castform is part of the Hoenn banner. A single pull first picks a rarity (17% for Rare) and then picks one of the 44 Rare Pokemon on that banner at random, so one pull gives Castform a 0.39% chance. Without pity helping at this rarity, expect to need around 259 pulls for this one in particular, although the pulls you spend on the banner also fill the rest of your collection.

A pull costs one ticket and ten pulls cost ten tickets or one x10 ticket. Tickets are earned in runs, from missions and from chests and are never sold for money. A duplicate turns into 60 coins, or 180 if it is the shiny version. The full odds and the pity rule are in the gacha guide.

Shiny Castform exists in this game. One pull in a hundred is a shiny, and wild enemies are shiny one time in 4096. Read the shiny guide for the details.

Castform as an enemy

Castform can show up as a regular enemy from 2:40 into the run (enemy tier 3). Each run draws only seven Pokemon per tier, so it is in some runs and absent from others.

Its enemy role is charger: it stops to aim for about half a second and then dashes in a straight line at more than three times its walking speed.
