Steps

- You can also bring a few Quick Balls with you if you'd like to attempt to catch Stufful immediately when the encounter begins.

Bring Fighting, Flying, Psychic and/or Fairy-Type Pokémon with you. Since Stufful is Normal and Fighting-Type, it is weak to those types of Pokémon. ^{[3]

Lower Stufful's health to about half or less. This will make catching it easier. Try using Fighting, Psychic, Flying, and/or Fairy-Type Pokémon, as mentioned earlier.
- You can also use the move False Swipe, since this move is guaranteed to leave the Pokémon it is used on with at least 1 HP.
- Try and avoid using moves that Poison or Burn, since this will make Stufful slowly lose health, and it may end up fainting before you are able to catch it.
- Stufful's level will likely be in the late teens or early 20s, so keep this in mind when choosing Pokémon to use in your encounter with it.

Throw a Pokéball to catch your Stufful. Once Stufful's health is half or less, throw a Pokéball. Eventually, you should successfully catch the Stufful, and you can add it to your party if you'd like.

Tips

If you don’t want to use Stufful in battle but you want it to level up, it still can. Make sure the Exp. Share you received at the Trainer’s school is turned on, and as long as Stufful is in your Party, it should still receive Exp. from battles you win.

Stufful may occasionally call for help if its health gets too low. If this happens, you’ll need to defeat whichever Pokémon appears before you’re allowed to catch Stufful.
