Which IVs make the best Chien Pao 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 2/15/15 at level 16.5 — 1495 CP. Anything close to it is worth keeping; the table holds the top 10.
At that level it fights with 142.71 attack, 98.76 defense and 111.24 stamina — a glass cannon: it hits first and does not want a long fight.
A hundo — 15/15/15 — lands at rank 2,125 of 4096 here, 95% of the best spread: one of the worse spreads for this league, despite the three fifteens.
| Rank | Attack / Defense / HP | Level | CP | Of the best |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 2/15/15 | 16.5 | 1495 | 100% |
| 2 | 4/15/13 | 16.5 | 1499 | 99.85% |
| 3 | 0/14/8 | 17 | 1498 | 99.85% |
| 4 | 3/14/15 | 16.5 | 1497 | 99.83% |
| 5 | 0/9/14 | 17 | 1500 | 99.77% |
| 6 | 1/13/8 | 17 | 1500 | 99.68% |
| 7 | 0/12/10 | 17 | 1498 | 99.65% |
| 8 | 4/13/15 | 16.5 | 1498 | 99.65% |
| 9 | 1/15/15 | 16.5 | 1490 | 99.62% |
| 10 | 0/15/7 | 17 | 1499 | 99.48% |
A level-20 catch is already past level 16.5, and a Pokémon cannot be powered down — here the CP cap is the limit, not Stardust.
Ultra League
The best spread is 0/13/14 at level 28 — 2499 CP. Anything close to it is worth keeping; the table holds the top 10.
At that level it fights with 184.5 attack, 127.24 defense and 144.2 stamina — a glass cannon: it hits first and does not want a long fight.
A hundo — 15/15/15 — lands at rank 1,842 of 4096 here, 95.8% of the best spread: one of the worse spreads for this league, despite the three fifteens.

| 10 | 2/15/15 | 27.5 | 2493 | 99.37% |
Taking a level-20 catch to level 28 costs 56,000 Stardust and 50 candy.
500 CP cap
(Little Cup is closed to this one)
Little Cup only takes Pokémon that can still evolve, so these are the best spreads under 500 CP for their own sake rather than a ranking for a cup it can enter.
The best spread is 0/15/0 at level 6 — 500 CP. The table holds the top 10.
At that level it fights with 83.8 attack, 58.44 defense and 61.01 stamina — a glass cannon: it hits first and does not want a long fight.
A hundo — 15/15/15 — lands at rank 137 of 4096 here, 97.7% of the best spread.
| Rank | Attack / Defense / HP | Level | CP | Of the best |

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.
