Pokédex · II (Johto)

Paldean Wooper#10253

Among other species it looks pale; its highest stat is HP. Its weakest point is Speed — among the lowest in the entire Pokédex. Taken together these numbers say little in its favor: below 98% of the Pokédex. On defense it has 4 weaknesses, 5 resistances and 1 full immunity. Electric-type moves do nothing to it at all. Very easy to catch, often with the first Poké Ball.

Last column: what percentage of 1084 species and regional forms have a lower value. Weak point: Speed.

Attack and Defense share first place here, so any nature that raises one of them will do. The list of natures shows what each one does.

Which nature to choose

It hits physically: its Attack (45) is 20 points higher than its Sp. Atk. So the drop hits a stat the set usually does not use at all.

  • Adamant +Atk · −SpA It moves second and nothing will change that, so the whole boost goes into power.
  • Brave +Atk · −Spe The Trick Room version: with the turn order reversed, the slower the better, and Gyro Ball calculates its power from exactly this lowered Speed.
  • Hidden Power and Weather Ball still deal damage based on Sp. Atk. If either of them is going into the set, lowering Sp. Atk is no longer free.

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

Regional numbers 8

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 Paldea Pokédex this form has the same position as the base form.
