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.

Gigantamax does not change any of these numbers — all 34 forms have the same stats, types and abilities as the base form.

Which nature to choose

It hits specially: its Sp. Atk (109) is 25 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 84% 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.
  • Solar Power raises Sp. Atk by 50% in harsh sunlight, so a nature that raises this stat boosts the base before the multiplier. The condition is not free: the ability takes 1/8 of max HP every turn.

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

Abilities

  • Blaze Strengthens fire moves to inflict 1.5× damage at 1/3 max HP or less.
  • Solar Power Increases Special Attack to 1.5× but costs 1/8 max HP after each turn during strong sunlight.
