**To use Goodra Hisui effectively in the current VGC format, leverage its Steel/Dragon type typing and build around its top-performing movesets.** Goodra Hisui 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 Goodra Hisui fits in a VGC team.

The most common build highlights Sap Sipper, Leftovers and Careful 32/0/32/0/2/0. Its frequent moves include Body Press, Protect, Shelter, Heavy Slam, Life Dew, and Flash Cannon. 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, Goodra Hisui has important weaknesses to fighting 2x, ground 2x. That matters during teambuilding because a strong composition needs ways to cover those attacks without giving up offensive pressure. Partners such as Sinistcha, Incineroar, Grimmsnarl, Farigiraf, and Staraptor-Mega appear often because they can add positioning, type coverage, speed control or safer switches into common checks.
