Strong point: Sp. Atk — among the highest in the entire Pokédex. Overall it is one of the stronger species — above 100% of the Pokédex. It does not evolve: it does not come from anything and does not change into anything. On defense it has 4 weaknesses and 7 resistances. This is a Legendary Pokémon: one per game, no offspring. Very easy to catch, often with the first Poké Ball.
Base stats
Last column: what percentage of 1084 species and regional forms have a lower value. Strong point: Sp. Atk.
A nature can improve this entry further: its boost hits hardest on Sp. Atk, the stat in which this species already leads. Which nature does that — see the list of natures.
Which nature to choose
It hits specially: its Sp. Atk (145) is 60 points higher than its Attack. So the drop hits a stat the set usually does not use at all.
- Timid +Spe · −Atk Its Speed is higher than 98% of species — ten percent more lifts it past some of the benchmarks that decide who moves first.
- Modest +SpA · −Atk If you already outspeed what you want to outspeed, those ten percent are better spent on hitting power.
A conclusion drawn from base stats alone — a specific moveset can reverse it. All 25 natures.
