FAQ

How do you unlock Houndour in Pokémon Survivors?

By hatching a Rare Egg. Bosses, locked chests and rifts sometimes drop eggs, which hatch in the incubator with the steps you walk in runs; once Houndour hatches, it's yours to play for good.

How does Houndour evolve?

Mid-run, as it levels up: into Houndoom at Lv 20.

What is Houndour's starting move?

Houndour starts every run with Fire Fang, the family's signature move. The other moves come from level-ups as the line evolves.

Can Houndour Mega Evolve?

Yes: at its final stage, into Mega Houndoom. The Mega Stone drops from the first rift legendary you beat in the run, and the Mega Evolution lasts 20 seconds.

Is Houndour good in Pokémon Survivors?

On the tier list, built from players’ runs, Houndour is C tier: it beat Mewtwo in 59% of its 41 runs on Normal over the last 30 days.
