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

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

It hits physically: its Attack (120) is 75 points higher than its Sp. Atk. So the drop hits a stat the set usually does not use at all.

  • Jolly +Spe · −SpA Its Speed is higher than 97% of species — ten percent more lifts it past some of the benchmarks that decide who moves first.
  • Adamant +Atk · −SpA If you already outspeed what you want to outspeed, those ten percent are better spent on hitting power.
  • 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.

How players use it

Data from 44,274 ranked battles on Smogon (Gen 9 UU, 2026-07). These are not numbers from the game — they are player habits. Gen 9 UU is one tier lower: it is played without the Pokémon most often used in OU, so the same species hold completely different places here.

Rank 10 among 274 Pokémon in use — it is on 15.32% of teams.

Tera Type Ghost 33.8% Ice 33.2% Dark 25.1% Fire 4.1% Electric 1.7%
EV spreads Jolly · 252 Atk / 252 Spe / 4 SpD 67.5% Jolly · 252 Atk / 252 Spe / 4 HP 16.5% Jolly · 252 Atk / 252 Spe / 4 Def 12.6% Adamant · 252 Atk / 252 Spe / 4 SpD 1.5%

Each row is a separate distribution, not a single set: the most common item and the most common move do not have to appear on the same Pokémon.

TCG cards (13)

All Weavile cards →

Weavile has 13 cards in 12 sets. The oldest of them are shown below.

Offspring can come from 275 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.
