Which IVs make the best Ironthorns 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 0/13/11 at level 15 — 1500 CP. Anything close to it is worth keeping; the table holds the top 10.
At that level it fights with 129.35 attack, 110.2 defense and 122.1 stamina — a glass cannon: it hits first and does not want a long fight.
A hundo — 15/15/15 — lands at rank 3,689 of 4096 here, 92.4% 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 | 0/13/11 | 15 | 1500 | 100% |
| 2 | 0/11/13 | 15 | 1499 | 99.87% |
| 3 | 0/9/15 | 15 | 1498 | 99.73% |
| 4 | 1/15/7 | 15 | 1500 | 99.68% |
| 5 | 0/14/10 | 15 | 1500 | 99.65% |
| 6 | 0/14/9 | 15 | 1497 | 99.65% |
| 7 | 1/13/9 | 15 | 1500 | 99.58% |
| 8 | 0/12/12 | 15 | 1500 | 99.53% |
| 9 | 0/12/11 | 15 | 1496 | 99.53% |
| 10 | 5/15/15 | 14.5 | 1498 | 99.53% |
A level-20 catch is already past level 15, and a Pokémon cannot be powered down — here the CP cap is the limit, not Stardust.
Ultra League
The best spread is 2/15/14 at level 24.5 — 2497 CP. Anything close to it is worth keeping; the table holds the top 10.
At that level it fights with 166.63 attack, 142.16 defense and 158.03 stamina — a glass cannon: it hits first and does not want a long fight.
A hundo — 15/15/15 — lands at rank 2,291 of 4096 here, 95.6% of the best spread: one of the worse spreads for this league, despite the three fifteens.

| 10 | 0/14/9 | 25 | 2495 | 99.49% |
Taking a level-20 catch to level 24.5 costs 27,500 Stardust and 25 candy.
500 CP cap
(Little Cup is closed to this one)

The best spread is 12/15/14 at level 5 — 500 CP. The table holds the top 10.
At that level it fights with 76.05 attack, 62.4 defense and 69.37 stamina — a glass cannon: it hits first and does not want a long fight.

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.
