Pokédex · II (Johto)

Tyrogue#236

Its stats are even — none is prominent enough to give it a single team role. Taken together these numbers say little in its favor: below 98% of the Pokédex. This is not the final form yet — it evolves once more, and the line branches into 3 mutually exclusive forms, so the numbers above describe this stage, not what it will end up as. On defense it has 3 weaknesses and 3 resistances. It cannot breed — it has no Egg Group, so you will not get it from breeding.

Last column: what percentage of 1084 species and regional forms have a lower value. All six values are identical — 35 each.

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

Attack (35) and Sp. Atk (35) are nearly equal, so neither of these two stats can be lowered for free. The price has to be paid in defense — in the weaker one, because Defense does not stop anything here anyway. Evolution does not change it, so pick it for the final form, not for these numbers.

  • Brave +Atk · −Spe Slow and attacking on both sides — the cheapest thing to give up is what it does not have. Under Trick Room this drop actually helps.
  • Guts raises Attack by 50% when the Pokémon has a status condition, so a nature that raises Attack scales with this ability. Without a status condition there is no extra multiplier.

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