Pokédex · VIII (Galar)

Dreepy#885

Its greatest asset is Speed — higher than 68% of species. Weak point: HP — among the lowest in the entire Pokédex. Its stat total lands at the tail end — below 92% of species. This is not the final form yet — it evolves twice more, so the numbers above describe this stage, not what it will end up as. Defensively it can rely on 5 weaknesses, 6 resistances and 2 full immunities. Normal and Fighting-type moves do nothing to it at all.

Last column: what percentage of 1084 species and regional forms have a lower value. Weak point: HP.

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 (60) is 20 points higher than its Sp. Atk. So the drop hits a stat the set usually does not use at all. Evolution does not change it, so pick it for the final form, not for these numbers.

  • Jolly +Spe · −SpA Its Speed is higher than 68% 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.

Dreepy has 2 cards in 2 sets. The oldest of them are shown below.

Offspring can come from 125 species from the same Egg Groups (with opposite genders) or from Ditto. Below are the first 12 by Pokédex number.

The Egg hatches after 40 cycles, which is roughly 10,500 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.
