Compared with other species it looks modest; its best stat is Speed. Weak point: Sp. Atk — lower than 74% of species. This is not the final form yet — it evolves once more, so the numbers above describe this stage, not what it will end up as. Defensively it can rely on 2 weaknesses and 4 resistances.
Base stats
Last column: what percentage of 1084 species and regional forms have a lower value. Weak point: Attack.
A nature can improve this entry further: its boost hits hardest on Speed, the stat in which this species already leads. Which nature does that — see the list of natures.
Which nature to choose
Attack (49) and Sp. Atk (49) 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.
- Lonely +Atk · −Def The boost goes into the stronger offensive stat and the drop into a defense that does not decide anything anyway.
A conclusion drawn from base stats alone — a specific moveset can reverse it. All 25 natures.

TCG cards (3)
All Finneon cards →Finneon has 3 cards in 3 sets. The oldest of them are shown below.
Breeding
All Egg Groups →Offspring can come from 33 species from the same Egg Groups (with opposite genders) or from Ditto. Below are the first 12 by Pokédex number.
The Egg hatches after 20 cycles, which is roughly 5,400 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.
