Compared with other species it is not impressive; its strongest stat is Defense. On the other hand, Speed — among the lowest in the entire Pokédex. Its base stat total is weak: lower than 95% 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. In defense it has 5 weaknesses and 4 resistances at its disposal.
Base stats
Last column: what percentage of 1084 species and regional forms have a lower value. 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 (40) and Sp. Atk (40) 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.
A conclusion drawn from base stats alone — a specific moveset can reverse it. All 25 natures.

TCG cards (3)
All Gossifleur cards →Gossifleur has 3 cards in 3 sets. The oldest of them are shown below.
Breeding
All Egg Groups →Offspring can come from 87 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.
