We’re going to tell trainers how to find Vullaby and evolve it into Mandibuzz in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet: The Teal Mask in this guide. Looking for the best Mandibuzz competitive build too? Don’t worry, we’ve got trainers covered there too. As a returning Pokémon to the Kitakami, Vullaby is in demand for Pokédex completionists, so let’s get straight into it.
How To Find Vullaby¶
Fast Travel to Paradise Barrens to find Vullaby wandering around in the wilds there. We found our Vullaby towards the south west side of Paradise Barrens. Use a Quick Ball when encountering for a solid chance of capture, failing that have a level 60 to 65 Pokémon or level 100 with False Swipe and a status move.
How To Evolve Vullaby Into Mandibuzz¶
Vullaby evolves into Mandibuzz at level 54, so with the wild Vullabys being above level 60 in Paradise Barrens, trainers only have to gain one level to evolve.
The Best Mandibuzz Competitive Build¶
Stat | Description |
---|---|
Level | 100 |
Tera Type | Flying |
Nature | Sassy |
Ability | Big Pecks |
Held Item | Leftovers |
Moveset | Brave Bird, Iron Defense, Payback and Roost |
Base Stats | HP: 110 Attack: 65, Defense: 105, Sp. Atk: 55, Sp. Def, 95 and Speed: 80 |
EVs | HP: 252, Attack: 48, Defense: 36 and Special Defense: 172 |
IVs | HP: 31, Attack: 31, Defense: 31, Sp. Atk: 0 Sp. Def. 31 and Speed: 31 |
The Big Pecks ability and Iron Defense combination make Mandibuzz an amazing wall. Start by building up Iron defense three or four times and use Roost when hitting a rough spot. Leftovers and Roost also balance out the self-inflicting damage of Brave Bird, so it’s well worth taking the risk. Finally Payback and a low speed stat makes for a solid quick-hitting move that gets damage dealt quickly.
