Is Liepard or Bisharp better for a Pokemon Sword playthrough?
Jun. 23, 2024I would also like it if you suggested movesets and/or natures for each Pokemon

Despite coming later than Liepard,Bisharpis the superior choice. Bisharp has higher Attack (125 vs 88), a better movepool, and a stronger typing (even with the 4x Fighting weakness). Bisharp’s main problem is its high evolution level: Level 52 means you’ll be using Pawniard until after the 8th Gym. For this reason, I don’t actually recommend using either — Scrafty and Grimmsnarl are both more efficient Dark types.
If you still choose to use Bisharp despite its levelling problems, it functions well as a physical attacker.
BisharpAbility: Defiant- Iron Head (Level 57)- Night Slash (Level 40)- Brick Break (TM on Route 8)- X-Scissor (TR) / Poison Jab (TR) / Slash (Level 35)
