Which IVs make the best Lairon 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 0/14/15 at level 28 — 1498 CP. Anything close to it is worth keeping; the table holds the top 10.
At that level it fights with 111.69 attack, 149.86 defense and 120.17 stamina — an even split between staying power and pressure.
A hundo — 15/15/15 — lands at rank 1,479 of 4096 here, 95.2% of the best spread: mediocre here — a lower-attack catch beats it.

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.
