Counter notes for Corsola

  • Corsola's Water / Rock typing makes Grass the cleanest answer because it reaches 4x damage. Its 35 base Speed means very slow counters still need enough bulk to take a hit first.
  • Electric, Fighting, and Ground attackers are useful secondary options when the top weakness is unavailable, but they should be chosen for safety, Speed, or team fit rather than raw multiplier alone.
  • Known abilities include Hustle, Natural Cure, and Regenerator. This page does not assume ability-specific battle effects, so verify the format before relying on a single counter.
  • Avoid counters that are weak to Water / Rock unless they are fast enough to pressure immediately or bulky enough to survive the exchange.
  • Corsola has alternate forms that can change this matchup, including Corsola-Galar. Check the specific form before relying on this defensive profile.

What not to use

Fire×0.25Normal×0.5Ice×0.5Poison×0.5Flying×0.5

These attacking types are resisted or blocked by the defender's typing, so they are usually lower-priority choices unless they provide a special battle role.

Battle caveats

  • This ranking uses modern Gen 6+ type matchups, STAB value, defensive switch-in safety, and base stats.
  • Abilities, held items, Terastallization, weather, terrain, and format rules can change real battle outcomes.
  • Coverage moves can punish obvious counters, so treat this as type-based guidance rather than a full matchup simulator.
  • Move availability depends on game version and learnset data; this page recommends attacking types rather than guaranteed moves.
