Its strongest point is Sp. Atk — higher than 98% of species. In base stat total it is among the strongest — higher than 94% of species. It does not evolve: it does not come from anything and does not change into anything. In defense it has 4 weaknesses and 6 resistances at its disposal. It cannot breed — it has no Egg Group, so you will not get it from breeding. 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: 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 (137) is 64 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 61% 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.

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's said to incinerate everything around it with lightning launched from its fur. Very little is known about this creature.
