- Eruption. Infernix has access to Eruption, which is further boosted by the harsh sunlight set by Drought. In addition to this, it is much faster than Torkoal with the same Special Attack stat, making it more likely to land full power Eruption if faster than its opponents.
- Solid STAB moves. Infernix has access to solid STAB moves in Eruption, Heat Wave, Mystical Fire, and Air Slash.

- Low stats overall. Infernix's stats are pretty low, most noticeable is its low bulk but its offensive stats are also stuck in mediocrity.
- Around middling Speed with Drought. Infernix's base Speed of 85 isn't incredibly slow but isn't doing it much favours when against slower weather setters (like Pelipper) as their weather will override Infernix's, Drought making it not amazing into opposing weather comps.
- Limited movepool. Infernix's only good coverage move for its statline is Solar Beam, which is at least nicely fully charged in harsh sunlight. Beyond that, it has essentially nothing else for coverage.
