Which IVs make the best Ludicolo 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 24.5 — 1496 CP. Anything close to it is worth keeping; the table holds the top 10.
PvPoke ranks it #136 overall in Great League, up from #137. PvPoke updated these ranks on 12 October 2026 · we checked on 14 October 2026. Compared with PvPoke's ranks of 9 October 2026.
The moves behind that rank: Astonish · Weather Ball (Water) · Energy Ball.
At that level it fights with 114.39 attack, 126.29 defense and 135.55 stamina — an even split between staying power and pressure.
A hundo — 15/15/15 — lands at rank 1,701 of 4096 here, 95.4% of the best spread: one of the worse spreads for this league, despite the three fifteens.

Ultra League
The best spread is 6/14/15 at level 50 — 2494 CP. Anything close to it is worth keeping; the table holds the top 10.
With Best Buddy (levels up to 51): the best spread is 4/14/15 at level 51, 2496 CP, and a hundo ranks 811 of 4096.
PvPoke ranks it #85 overall in Ultra League, up from #86. PvPoke updated these ranks on 12 October 2026 · we checked on 14 October 2026. Compared with PvPoke's ranks of 9 October 2026.
The moves behind that rank: Astonish · Weather Ball (Water) · Energy Ball.
At that level it fights with 150.41 attack, 159.66 defense and 172.26 stamina — an even split between staying power and pressure.
A hundo — 15/15/15 — lands at rank 521 of 4096 here, 97.1% of the best spread: mediocre here — a lower-attack catch beats it.
| Rank | Attack / Defense / HP | Level | CP | Of the best |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 6/14/15 | 50 | 2494 | 100% |
| 2 | 5/15/15 | 50 | 2487 | 99.96% |

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 0/6/14 at level 8.5 — 500 CP. The table holds the top 10.
At that level it fights with 67.05 attack, 70.54 defense and 79.07 stamina — an even split between staying power and pressure.
A hundo — 15/15/15 — lands at rank 1,513 of 4096 here, 93.4% of the best spread.
| Rank | Attack / Defense / HP | Level | CP | Of the best |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 0/6/14 | 8.5 | 500 | 100% |
| 2 | 0/15/4 | 8.5 | 500 | 99.63% |
| 3 | 0/10/9 | 8.5 | 500 | 99.61% |
| 4 | 1/4/14 | 8.5 | 500 | 99.47% |
| 5 | 0/5/15 | 8.5 | 500 | 99.45% |
| 6 | 0/5/14 | 8.5 | 499 | 99.45% |
| 7 | 0/12/7 | 8.5 | 500 | 99.37% |
| 8 | 0/7/13 | 8.5 | 500 | 99.28% |
| 9 | 0/7/12 | 8.5 | 499 | 99.28% |
| 10 | 1/13/4 | 8.5 | 500 | 99.16% |
A level-20 catch is already past level 8.5, and a Pokémon cannot be powered down — here the CP cap is the limit, not Stardust.

What every Great League build costs →
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.
