Its strongest point is Sp. Atk — higher than 81% of species. In defense it has 2 weaknesses, 5 resistances and 1 full immunity at its disposal. Ground-type moves do nothing to it at all.
Base stats
Last column: what percentage of 1084 species and regional forms have a lower value. Strong point: Sp. Atk.
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.
Which nature to choose
It hits specially: its Sp. Atk (98) is 28 points higher than its Attack. So the drop hits a stat the set usually does not use at all.
- Timid +Spe · −Atk Its Speed is higher than 79% of species — ten percent more lifts it past some of the benchmarks that decide who moves first.
- Modest +SpA · −Atk If you already outspeed what you want to outspeed, those ten percent are better spent on hitting power.
A conclusion drawn from base stats alone — a specific moveset can reverse it. All 25 natures.
Abilities
- Dancer Whenever another Pokémon uses a dance move, this Pokémon will use the same move immediately afterwards.
How players use it
Data from 730,502 ranked battles on Smogon (Gen 9 OU, 2026-08). These are not numbers from the game — they are player habits. Gen 9 OU is the most popular format with no top-down team restrictions — everything is allowed except what was deemed too strong.
Rank 250 among 291 Pokémon in use — it is on 0.02% of teams.
Each row is a separate distribution, not a single set: the most common item and the most common move do not have to appear on the same Pokémon.
Pokédex entry
It beats its wings together to create fire. As it moves in the steps of its beautiful dance, it bathes opponents in intense flames.
