**To use Cofagrigus effectively in the current VGC format, leverage its Ghost type typing and build around its top-performing movesets.** Cofagrigus appears as a prominent choice in the current Pokémon Champions format, with usage data pulled from competitive teams, tournament results and Showdown-ready pastes tracked by MetaVGC. This page brings together its most common moveset, nature, ability, item, teammates and type weaknesses so you can judge where Cofagrigus fits in a VGC team.

The most common build highlights Mummy, Leftovers and Sassy 32/0/2/0/32/0. Its frequent moves include Trick Room, Will-O-Wisp, Body Press, Shadow Ball, Ally Switch, and Haze. Treat those choices as a data-backed starting point: they show what players are bringing, while EV spreads, Tera Type and the final move slot should still respond to your expected matchups.

Defensively, Cofagrigus has important weaknesses to dark 2x, ghost 2x. That matters during teambuilding because a strong composition needs ways to cover those attacks without giving up offensive pressure. Partners such as Farigiraf, Kingambit, Mawile-Mega, Incineroar, and Camerupt-Mega appear often because they can add positioning, type coverage, speed control or safer switches into common checks.
