Last column: what percentage of 1084 species and regional forms have a lower value. Strong point: Sp. Atk; weak point: Speed.

A nature can improve this entry further: its boost hits hardest on Sp. Atk, the stat in which this species already leads. Which nature does that — see the list of natures.

Mega Evolution adds a fixed pool of one hundred points and replaces the ability with a single one.

Which nature to choose

It hits specially: its Sp. Atk (145) is 25 points higher than its Attack. So the drop hits a stat the set usually does not use at all.

  • Modest +SpA · −Atk It moves second and nothing will change that, so the whole boost goes into power.
  • Quiet +SpA · −Spe The Trick Room version: with the turn order reversed, the slower the better, and Gyro Ball calculates its power from exactly this lowered Speed.

A conclusion drawn from base stats alone — a specific moveset can reverse it. All 25 natures.

Abilities

  • Sheer Force Strengthens moves with extra effects to 1.3× their power, but prevents their extra effects.
