Flutter Mane#987

Its greatest asset is Sp. Atk — higher than 97% of species. Weak point: Defense — lower than 72% of species. It does not evolve: it does not come from anything and does not change into anything. Defensively it can rely on 2 weaknesses, 1 resistance and 3 full immunities. Normal, Fighting and Dragon-type moves do nothing to it at all. It cannot breed — it has no Egg Group, so you will not get it from breeding.

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

Sp. Atk 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

It hits specially: its Sp. Atk (135) is 80 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.
