team. Using these methods can help you defeat Drayton, but don\u2019t feel stressed if you can\u2019t beat him the first time.\u00a0\u00a0 If you want to beat Drayton in Pok\u00e9mon Scarlet and Violet, here are some techniques to try.\u00a0 Pok\u00e9mon Scarlet and Violet\u00a0The Indigo Disk: Full Drayton battle walkthrough Drayton is a new character in the Pok\u00e9mon Scarlet and Violet The Indigo Disk DLC. He\u2019s part of the Elite Four and specializes in using Dragon-type Pokemon. Before you can fight Drayton, you\u2019ll have to defeat the Elite Four during Drayton\u2019s trial. There\u2019s a catch, though: You can only use Pok\u00e9mon from the four biomes of The Indigo Disk.\u00a0You will not be able to use Pok\u00e9mon you\u2019ve caught from Tera Raids or Paldea during the trials. However, this limitation does not apply to the fight against Drayton himself once the Trial has been completed. Drayton has an impressive lineup of Pokemon, including Dragonite (level 78), Flygon (level 78), Haxorus (level 78), Sceptile (level 79), Kingdra (level 79), and Archaludon (level 80).\u00a0 To beat Drayton, you need a team that\u2019s at least between levels 80 to 100. You should also focus on bringing Ice and Fairy-type Pok\u00e9mon, as both are super effective against Drayton's team. The first Pok\u00e9mon that Drayton uses in battle is Flygon, which is weak against Ice and Dragon-type attacks. The next Pok\u00e9mon is Dragonite, and its attacks pack a punch with a base attack stat of 134. This is another Pok\u00e9mon that can be taken down using solid Ice moves from your Ice-type Pok\u00e9mon. If you\u2019ve managed to defeat Flygon or Dragonite, get ready for Haxorus, with a base attack stat of 147.\u00a0 The remaining Pok\u00e9mon in this battle are weak to Ice, Fairy, and Dragon-type attacks, with Sceptile being weak to Fire-type moves. Best Pok\u00e9mon team to use against Drayton Flygon, Greninja, Chi-Yu, Garchomp, Baxcalibur, and Alolan Ninetails are all great choices to have in your party. Flygon is useful for this fight because you can spam moves like Earthquake to create tons of damage\u2014but be careful, as this move will also damage the other Pok\u00e9mon you have on the field. Greninja is also a powerful Pok\u00e9mon for this fight, especially if you use the TM Blizzard on it and use a Wide Lens item, turning Greninja into an Ice type. Baxcalibur can use moves such as Ice Spear or Icicle Crash to do at least 100 to 125 damage. When you\u2019re up against Haxorus and Flygon, have Greninja use Blizzard so it can hit multiple enemies and perform a one-shot kill on Flygon.\u00a0\u00a0 Tips to defeat Drayton in Pok\u00e9mon Scarlet and Violet The Indigo Disk If you\u2019re still having trouble defeating Drayton, you can try to use spread attack moves, switch your team around who have an advantage against Dragon-type Pok\u00e9mon, and pair Pok\u00e9mon that complement their types.\u00a0 Use spread attacks if you pair two Pok\u00e9mon, such as Flutter Mane and Chi-Yu. They can use an ability called Beads of Ruin that deals tons of damage when they use the move Dazzling Gleam.\u00a0 Chi-Yu can also take out Sceptile instantly by using its Overheat move. When you use super-effective types against Pok\u00e9mon, it can drastically change the outcome of a battle.","apple_news_notices":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Pokemon-Drayton.png","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1077528"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2546"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1077528"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1077528\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1084554,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1077528\/revisions\/1084554"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1071756"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1077528"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1077528"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1077528"},{"taxonomy":"invoiceable_action","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/invoiceable_action?post=1077528"},{"taxonomy":"internal-label","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/internal-label?post=1077528"},{"taxonomy":"article_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/article_type?post=1077528"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/coauthors?post=1077528"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
