Clodsire’s Weaknesses and Counters in Pokemon Scarlet & Violet
Clodsire has a few Type weaknesses to consider. First off, its ground Typing means it would usually be weak to Water Type attacks. While this remains true, it is not the case for every Clodsire, as one of the abilities available to this Pokemon is Water Absorb, effectively turning water-based damage into HP regeneration.
Alongside this, Clodsire is also weak to moves of the Ice, Ground and Psychic Types. Unfortunately, all of these typings are only 2x effective against Clodsire, rather than the most powerful 4x effective, so the best bet to take Clodsire down is by using Pokemon with powerful Physical attack potenital.
Notable Pokemon that can be used to achieve this include Cetitian, Palafin, Garchomp, Great Tusk, Gardevoir or Gallade. Of course, there are plenty more Pokemon that can achieve this, but these are just a select few with considerable offensive power.
