Its greatest asset is Sp. Atk — higher than 92% of species. Defensively it can rely on 5 weaknesses, 7 resistances and 2 full immunities. Normal and Fighting-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 (119) is 35 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.
Regional numbers 4
The header shows the national number. Inside the game the Pokédex counts from the beginning — below is the number you will see in your version. The number belongs to the species, not to the form: in the Hisui Pokédex this form has the same position as the base form.
| Johto | #006 | Gold / Silver , Crystal , HeartGold / SoulSilver |
|---|---|---|
| Hisui | #006 home region | Legends: Arceus |
| Blueberry Academy | #178 | Scarlet / Violet , Scarlet/Violet: The Indigo Disk |
| Pokémon Champions | #157 | Champions |

How players use it
Data from 44,274 ranked battles on Smogon (Gen 9 UU, 2026-07). These are not numbers from the game — they are player habits. Gen 9 UU is one tier lower: it is played without the Pokémon most often used in OU, so the same species hold completely different places here.
Rank 151 among 274 Pokémon in use — it is on 0.17% 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
If its rage peaks, it becomes so hot that anything that touches it will instantly go up in flames.
