Which form of Urshifu should I use for Battle Stadium Singles?

1 minute read

So I recently was allowed to pick which tower I should go into to evolve my Kubfu. But since my friend keep challenging me for battles, I was wondering which Urshifu is better. Single or Rapid? I watch many videos but I can’t seem to get a straight answer, I mean it’s not as easy as picking between Sword or Shield. So can someone please get me an answer.

Single strike is often better than rapid strike, partly because sucker punch is stronger than aqua jet. Fighting dark is also a better offensive typing, so single strike is better at checking Dragonite, Metagross, Toxapex, dusk mane Necrozma, Dragapult, Eternatus, and Calyrex (both forms). It can check fairies simply by using poison jab.sourcesource

The way I see it, it depends on the rest of your team. If your team has a dark type, add urshifu water. If it has a water type, add urshifu dark. They both have very good signature moves, but urshifu water has the more reliable priority move Aqua jet, meanwhile urshifu dark’s best priority move is sucker punch, which is not as good. But you could add a Pokémon with anger point to your team and use the guaranteed crit move to get the stat boosts. The first priority is definitely type coverage, so focus on that first. But otherwise, I thing urshifu water is better due to having a better priority move and not having a 4x weakness. So I would focus on type coverage first, but if you don’t care about that, I would recommend urshifu water.
