Great League

The best spread is 0/10/14 at level 16.5 — 1497 CP. Anything close to it is worth keeping; the table holds the top 10.

At that level it fights with 132.4 attack, 111.24 defense and 115.04 stamina — a glass cannon: it hits first and does not want a long fight.

A hundo — 15/15/15 — lands at rank 2,542 of 4096 here, 94.6% of the best spread: one of the worse spreads for this league, despite the three fifteens.

9 1/10/13 16.5 1500 99.54%
10 0/9/15 16.5 1497 99.51%

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 2/15/14 at level 27 — 2500 CP. Anything close to it is worth keeping; the table holds the top 10.

At that level it fights with 170.76 attack, 145.77 defense and 147.16 stamina — a glass cannon: it hits first and does not want a long fight.

A hundo — 15/15/15 — lands at rank 987 of 4096 here, 96.7% of the best spread: mediocre here — a lower-attack catch beats it.

RankAttack / Defense / HPLevelCPOf the best
1 2/15/14 27 2500 100%
2 0/15/9 27.5 2496 99.65%

9 1/11/12 27.5 2500 99.51%
10 0/9/15 27.5 2496 99.47%

Taking a level-20 catch to level 27 costs 47,000 Stardust and 42 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 8/15/15 at level 5.5 — 499 CP. The table holds the top 10.

At that level it fights with 77.13 attack, 64.27 defense and 65.19 stamina — a glass cannon: it hits first and does not want a long fight.

A hundo — 15/15/15 — lands at rank 3,763 of 4096 here, 86.7% of the best spread.

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.
