Appearance
Hattrem is based on a witch; to be more precise, a witch’s hat, hence the name. It has a primarily blue and pink colour palette. On its head is a hat-like structure with braids attached to it, with two pink ribbon-like parts, and on top of that is a pink cone. Its eyes are black and it has a tiny body which looks like a dress but it manages to stand up by using the braids on its head.
Behavior
Hattrem are Pokemon which can sense emotions and it hates strong emotions. It goes to such extremes that if you show strong emotion around this Pokemon, it can silence you violently. It’s braids aren’t to be underestimated either. It can not only support the Pokemon’s entire body, but can also knock out a professional boxer with a single blow from it.
Strengths and Weaknesses
Since Hattrem is a pure Psychic type, it has very basic weaknesses and resistances. It takes double the normal damage from Bug, Ghost and Dark type moves. On the other hand, it is resistant to Fighting and Psychic type attacks but has no immunities.
Best moveset
Despite having a high special attack stat, it does not have a special attack boosting move which prevents it from benefiting largely from it. But because of the same, it is easy to use Choice Specs on this Pokemon to be a one move damage dealing sweeper.
Due to Choice Specs, this Pokemon can use only one move in this kit. Because of this, try to not use Psychic if the enemy has a Dark type Pokemon in the team because it can be easily nullified by switching it in. All four of these are hyper offensive, so choose the moves according to the typing of the opponent.
