| Scrafty is a versatile Pokemon with a set of traits that lends it well to playing either offensively or defensively. Its bulk is an immediate strength, sporting incredible defenses physically and specially. It also has two excellent defensive abilities, Shed Skin to passively remove status conditions, or Intimidate to weaken opposing physical attackers. Offensively, its typing has nice offensive synergy, hitting a wide amount of Pokemon neutrally with its STAB moves alone. It also has fearsome setup moves and the Moxie ability, letting a sweeper set potentially snowball out of control. Scrafty's terrible Speed and middling Attack is problematic for offensive builds, necessitating stat boosts to become a threat, while weaknesses to Fighting, Flying and Fairy are serious defensive flaws due to how common these types of attacks are.

| Hi-Jump Kick is Scrafty's strongest STAB option, doing immense damage but with the risk of heavy recoil if it fails to hit. Drain Punch is significantly weaker but leeches life from the opponent, making it a better option for bulky Scrafty. Knock Off is the best STAB move of any Dark-type, Scrafty being no exception, removing the items of foes to make them easier to defeat while dealing high damage on the initial hit. Iron Head is an important coverage move, as Fairies resist both of Scrafty's STAB attacks. Ice Punch provides excellent coverage against the many Flying and Dragon types popular for battling. Dragon Dance improves Scrafty's Attack and patches its poor Speed, turning it into a difficult sweeper. Lastly, Fake Out is handy in doubles and triples for its guaranteed flinch.
