Its strongest point is Attack — higher than 94% of species. In base stat total it is among the strongest — higher than 94% of species. In defense it has 4 weaknesses, 3 resistances and 1 full immunity at its disposal. Ghost-type moves do nothing to it at all. This is a Mythical Pokémon — it does not appear in normal gameplay; it was handed out at events and through distributions. Very hard to catch — bring plenty of Poké Balls and something that puts it to sleep or paralyzes it.
Base stats
Last column: what percentage of 1084 species and regional forms have a lower value. Strong point: Speed.
Attack and Speed share first place here, so any nature that raises one of them will do. The list of natures shows what each one does.
Which nature to choose
It hits physically: its Attack (128) is 51 points higher than its Sp. Atk. So the drop hits a stat the set usually does not use at all.
- Jolly +Spe · −SpA Its Speed is higher than 98% of species — ten percent more lifts it past some of the benchmarks that decide who moves first.
- Adamant +Atk · −SpA If you already outspeed what you want to outspeed, those ten percent are better spent on hitting power.
- Hidden Power and Weather Ball still deal damage based on Sp. Atk. If either of them is going into the set, lowering Sp. Atk is no longer free.
A conclusion drawn from base stats alone — a specific moveset can reverse it. All 25 natures.
Abilities
- Serene Grace Doubles the chance of moves' extra effects occurring.
