Tips

Hustle is a powerful ability for Pokémon that rely on raw Attack power, but be mindful of the accuracy drop.
Consider using moves with high base accuracy or moves that are guaranteed to hit to mitigate the accuracy reduction.
Having a Pokémon with Hustle as your lead can help you encounter lower-leveled wild Pokémon, which can be useful for training or avoiding stronger opponents.
