Spiritomb#442

Its strongest point is Defense — higher than 89% of species. On the other hand, Speed — lower than 88% of species. It does not evolve: it does not come from anything and does not change into anything. In defense it has 1 weakness, 1 resistance and 3 full immunities at its disposal. Normal, Fighting and Psychic-type moves do nothing to it at all.

Last column: what percentage of 1084 species and regional forms have a lower value. Strong point: Sp. Def; weak point: Speed.

Defense and Sp. Def 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 (92) and Sp. Atk (92) 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.

  • 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.

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

TCG cards (12)

All Spiritomb cards →

Spiritomb has 12 cards in 12 sets. The oldest of them are shown below.

Offspring can come from 57 species from the same Egg Groups (with opposite genders) or from Ditto. Below are the first 12 by Pokédex number.

The Egg hatches after 30 cycles, which is roughly 7,900 steps. The exact cycle length depends on the game — newer titles shortened it noticeably — so treat this number as an order of magnitude, not a countdown. Having the Flame Body Ability in your party halves the wait.
