Sudowoodo in Pokemon Survivor

Sudowoodo at a glance

Stats and Stat Score

Sudowoodo has 102 HP, 91 speed and a 1.25x 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 among the lowest on the roster and its attack is above average. Weighting attack at half and HP and speed at a quarter each gives the Stat Score of 48.3, which puts it at rank 523 overall, rank 45 of 100 among Johto Pokemon and rank 34 of 66 Rock-types. The score comes from the game's stat table, not from playtests, so read it together with the best Pokemon guide.

On the full Pokedex ranking Sudowoodo sits next to Monferno one place above it and Weepinbell one place below it.

Sudowoodo moves

Pokemon that are not starters begin with the signature move of their first type, so Sudowoodo starts every run with Rock Throw: a heavy boulder that pushes the enemy back.

The level-up cards can then offer 10 different moves: the 8 Normal moves that every Pokemon shares plus 2 moves of its own type. 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.

• Normal moves: Tackle, Quick Attack, Swords Dance, Agility, Harden, Body Slam, Hyper Voice, Substitute
• Rock moves: Rock Throw, Rock Slide

Weaknesses and resistances

Sudowoodo takes extra damage from Water (1.6x), Grass (1.6x), Fighting (1.6x), Ground (1.6x), and Steel (1.6x). It resists Normal (0.6x), Fire (0.6x), Poison (0.6x), and Flying (0.6x). The remaining 9 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 Sudowoodo are the ones whose first type is Water, Grass, Fighting, Ground, or Steel. 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 Rock moves do not hit harder just because Sudowoodo shares the type.

How to get Sudowoodo

Sudowoodo is part of the Johto banner. A single pull first picks a rarity (17% for Rare) and then picks one of the 29 Rare Pokemon on that banner at random, so one pull gives Sudowoodo a 0.59% chance. Without pity helping at this rarity, expect to need around 171 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.

A rarity-3 Pokemon like Sudowoodo can also turn up as the Lost Pokemon event in a run. Lead it to the marker and, one time in five, it joins your collection; you always get coins, a ticket and a heal.

Shiny Sudowoodo 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.

Sudowoodo as an enemy

Sudowoodo 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.
