Order Tapu Bulu — free

Tapu Bulu is a Grass/Fairy-type Pokémon (National Dex #787) with a high stat total of 570. Of the six Nintendo Switch games GenPKM supports, it appears only in Sword & Shield, and every copy is generated through the same PKHeX legality engine Pokémon HOME uses on deposit.

Its best stat is Attack at 130, which makes it a slow but heavy-hitting attacker. Attack outweighs Special Attack by a clear margin, so an Adamant or Jolly nature and a physical move set play to its strengths. When you order one here you pick the nature, EV spread, IVs and Tera type yourself, so you can build the exact spread the set calls for rather than breeding for it.

Defensively, Tapu Bulu takes super-effective damage from Poison at 4×, and Fire, Ice, Flying, Steel at 2×. It is completely immune to Dragon. It resists Water, Electric, Grass, Fighting, Ground, Dark. Its ability options are Grassy Surge, Telepathy, and you choose which one your copy carries.

In-game, Tapu Bulu has 5 recorded encounter locations across Sword & Shield (5) — listed in full below with levels, catchable marks and legal Poké Balls. A shiny Tapu Bulu ordered here is built with a legal PID and Encryption Constant, so it passes the same checks a hunted one does.
