Its strongest point is Sp. Def — higher than 82% of species. On the other hand, Defense — lower than 72% of species. In defense it has 2 weaknesses, 5 resistances and 1 full immunity at its disposal. Watch out for the Electric type — damage from it is quadrupled.
Base stats
Last column: what percentage of 1084 species and regional forms have a lower value. Strong point: Sp. Def.
A nature can improve this entry further: its boost hits hardest on Sp. Def, the stat in which this species already leads. Which nature does that — see the list of natures.
Which nature to choose

- Hasty +Spe · −Def A mixed set that does not intend to take any hits: all that matters is striking first.
- Lonely +Atk · −Def The same price, but the boost goes into the stronger of the two offensive stats.
A conclusion drawn from base stats alone — a specific moveset can reverse it. All 25 natures.
