Toxtricity or Boltund for Pokemon Sword?
Which one should I use for my playthrough?
BTW this is the rest of my team (or will be once they’re fully evolved):
Inteleon
Sirfetch’d
Obstagoon
Corviknight
Centiskorch
So, now that that’s all done, which one should I use? Please provide movesets. :D

Boltund- Yamper can be obtained earlier than Toxel- Good Ability in Strong Jaw- Astounding Speed- Respectable equal attacking stats- STAB moves super effective against Nessa and a few Pokemon in the Champion’s Cup- Learns moves like Wild Charge, Play Rough, Fire Fang, Crunch, and Psychic Fangs- Quite frail
Toxtricity- Good Ability in Punk Rock- Exceptional Special Attack and respectable Speed- STAB moves super effective against Nessa, Opal, and a few Pokemon in the Champion’s Cup- Learns moves like Overdrive, Sludge Wave, Boomburst, and Volt Switch- Toxel is obtained slightly later than Yamper- Until it evolves, Toxel is garbage
I think they both work fine. Use Toxtricity to hit harder specially, but use Boltund for a fast, hard-hitting physical attacker.
Boltund @ Life Orb / Expert BeltAbility: Strong Jaw- Wild Charge / Thunderbolt- Psychic Fangs- Crunch- Fire Fang / Play Rough
Toxtricity @ Wise Glasses / Poison BarbAbility: Punk Rock- Sludge Wave- Overdrive- Boomburst- Hex / Volt Switch
Hope I helped!
Boltund.
Toxtricity is too slow and too frail, plus a 4x weakness isn’t great, and it’s to one of the best attacking types: Ground.Toxtricity is a special attacker, but it gets a lot of physical coverage which isn’t great, and even then Physical Electric and Poison types get outclassed by Special variants.Boltund is very fast and its Ability helps its physical STAB in Thunder Fang, making it better than Wild Charge with 98 power and no recoil pre STAB. It gets Crunch, Fire Fang, and Psychic Fangs for coverage as well as Volt Switch for pivoting, Play Rough so that Dragon types that resist its STAB go down, and Nuzzle for guaranteed ParaHax, PLUS having just as good Special Attack for Thunderbolt, Hyper Beam, Volt Switch, Snarl, etc.
