PVE Offensive Moves Explanation

  • If you're determined to use Sawk for offense, its only worthwhile moveset is Low Kick and Focus Blast... though "worthwhile" is a pretty strong statement in this case.

PVE Defensive Moves Explanation

  • Poison Jab is the Fast Move of choice, and it pairs best with Low Sweep or Body Slam, though a mix of Low Kick and Body Slam is every bit as good.
  • Focus Blast is sub-par on defense.

PVE Overview

...just catch a Macop and raise it. Seriously; don't bother with Sawk.

PvP Moveset Explanation

Poison Jab + Body Slam and Focus Blast

Low Kick and Low Sweep are bad. Poison Jab and Body Slam are good. Focus Blast is the STAB move of choice, hitting incredibly hard and providing some real shield threat. Do note that this set does leave it very bait-reliant in certain matchups.

PvP Rating Explanation

Great League: 2 / 5

Sawk's incredibly low bulk does it no favors down in Great League, though its interesting collection of moves gives it some neat advantages. Poison Jab allows it to perform better against Fairy-types than other Fighters, and Focus Blast gives it a oneshot against many relevant Steel-types. However, this is generally not enough to make it particularly useful.

Ultra League: 2 / 5

Sawk fills pretty much the same role in Ultra League as it does in Great, though the things it can prey on are certainly less common. You're probably better off looking elsewhere.

Master League: 0 / 5

Sawk's 2788 CP simply doesn't cut it up in Master League, with its weaknesses becoming even more apparent.
