Jirachi#385

Its stats are balanced — none stands out enough to force a single team role on it. 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, 9 resistances and 1 full immunity at its disposal. Poison-type moves do nothing to it at all. This is a Mythical Pokémon — it does not appear in normal gameplay; it was handed out at events and through distributions. Very hard to catch — bring plenty of Poké Balls and something that puts it to sleep or paralyzes it.

Last column: what percentage of 1084 species and regional forms have a lower value. All six values are identical — 100 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 (100) and Sp. Atk (100) 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.

• Hasty +Spe · −Def A mixed set that does not intend to take any hits: all that matters is striking first.
• Lonely +Atk · −Def The same price, but the boost goes into the stronger of the two offensive stats.

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

Pokédex entry

A legend states that JIRACHI will make true any wish that is written on notes attached to its head when it awakens. If this POKéMON senses danger, it will fight without awakening.

Jirachi does not breed. You cannot get an Egg from it — this is how the games treat almost all Legendary and Mythical species.

The levels shown are the widest range across all game versions — in a specific release it may be narrower. The exact area, catch method and chance are on the page of each location.
