Which IVs make the best Archen for PvP, league by league — ranked by stat product, the way rankings are calculated in Pokémon GO. Ranked at levels up to 50 — without Best Buddy.
Great League
The best spread is 0/15/15 at level 31 — 1500 CP. Anything close to it is worth keeping; the table holds the top 10.
At that level it fights with 157.14 attack, 76.73 defense and 118.78 stamina — a glass cannon: it hits first and does not want a long fight.
A hundo — 15/15/15 — lands at rank 703 of 4096 here, 96.6% of the best spread: mediocre here — a lower-attack catch beats it.

| 10 | 1/15/11 | 31.5 | 1500 | 99.58% |
Taking a level-20 catch to level 31 costs 85,000 Stardust and 74 candy.
Little Cup
The best spread is 3/15/15 at level 10 — 498 CP. Anything close to it is worth keeping; the table holds the top 10.
At that level it fights with 91.26 attack, 43.94 defense and 68.02 stamina — a glass cannon: it hits first and does not want a long fight.
A hundo — 15/15/15 — lands at rank 154 of 4096 here, 97% of the best spread: usable, though far from the top.
| Rank | Attack / Defense / HP | Level | CP | Of the best |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 3/15/15 | 10 | 498 | 100% |
| 2 | 2/15/15 | 10 | 496 | 99.54% |
| 3 | 4/14/15 | 10 | 498 | 99.5% |

| 8 | 3/14/15 | 10 | 496 | 99.04% |
| 9 | 0/9/14 | 10.5 | 499 | 99% |
| 10 | 4/15/14 | 10 | 499 | 98.99% |
A level-20 catch is already past level 10, and a Pokémon cannot be powered down — here the CP cap is the limit, not Stardust.

Ranks come from every one of the 4096 IV combinations, each taken to the highest level its league allows, and sorted by stat product. Levels stop at 50, where any player can take a Pokémon; a Best Buddy goes one level further, and where that changes an answer the section says so on a line of its own. Numbers refresh whenever the Pokédex does.
