How to unlock

Use the matching region banner. Rarity pity guarantees a tier, not this specific Pokémon.

Build direction

Perrserker starts with Metal Claw, a Melee arc attack. Build the early run around this actual starting behavior, then choose alternatives from its legal pool.

Work around the edge of a pack. An active group containing melee receives the game’s ×0.75 damage factor after ordinary reduction, but warning zones still require a dodge.

Strengths & limits from its stats

Base HP 102 versus dataset median 99; movement 99 versus 105; attack multiplier ×1.31 versus ×1.17. Medians use all 966 entries and describe base stats, not win rates.

Its HP is at or above the dataset median, giving a larger base health buffer than lower-HP entries; this does not remove type weaknesses or incoming warnings.

Movement is below the median. Leave extra space around charge lines and runners, and avoid routes that require crossing slowing liquid under pressure.

Move choices & active slots

Its regular learn pool contains 11 moves across 7 behavior families. Choose a different behavior or attack type for a real target problem; learning extra ordinary slots does not add simultaneous damage.

For a different damage pattern, inspect Flash Cannon / Meteor Mash. These are legal alternatives from its pool; compare their level, evolution and target conditions before replacing the active attack.

Upgrade & evolution route

A practical first budget shortlist is Stride, based on the stat comparison above. Compare costs and your actual failure point; these are recommendations, not a universally optimal purchase order. Permanent levels belong to this Pokémon.

For Metal Claw → Iron Head, reach move level 5, take the Power card in this run and select the evolution offer. Buying a similarly named permanent upgrade does not satisfy that condition.

This analysis is derived from the displayed source stats and combat rules. It does not claim playtesting, measured win rate or guaranteed run length.
