How Gengar’s stat preview works

Gengar is National Pokédex number 94 in this local canonical-species snapshot. Its base-stat total is 500. The six values are HP 60, Attack 65, Defense 60, Special Attack 130, Special Defense 75, and Speed 110. That distribution makes Special Attack the strongest raw axis at 130, while Defense is the lowest at 60. The radar draws those calculated level stats as geometry; it is a shape comparison, not an official rating.

HP=(2B+IV+EV4)L100+L+10(other stats add 5 instead)\text{HP} = \left\lfloor \frac{\left( 2B + \text{IV} + \left\lfloor \frac{\text{EV}}{4} \right\rfloor \right) L}{100} \right\rfloor + L + 10 \quad (\text{other stats add } 5 \text{ instead})
This preview uses a neutral nature. Choose the full stat calculator to apply a beneficial or hindering nature separately.

The stored typing is Ghost and Poison. Under the modern chart, ordinary type-only weaknesses include Ground, Psychic, Ghost, Dark, while resisted or immune attacking types include Normal, Grass, Fighting, Poison, Bug, Fairy. Abilities, temporary type changes, special moves, and generation-specific chart differences can change an actual battle. The type calculator shows the complete multiplier for a chosen single or dual defense.

Defeating this species is recorded as yielding 3 Sp. Atk EV. Its Medium Slow growth group determines cumulative experience thresholds; it does not follow directly from the 500 base-stat total. The stored GO base values are Attack 261, Defense 149, and Stamina 155. Those are separate from the main-series six-stat values and feed the GO CP formula with a level-specific combat power multiplier.

Worked example

At level 50, with IV 31, 0 EVs entered independently for this comparison, and a neutral nature, the preview gives HP 135, Attack 85, Defense 80, Special Attack 150, Special Defense 95, Speed 130. Real spreads cannot place 252 EVs in all six stats because the overall limit is 510; the uniform EV field is a sensitivity control for comparing axes, not a legal-spread validator. Use the EV planner to allocate a legal total.

Reading this species page

Base stats belong to the species; IVs and EVs belong to an individual build. A high base axis still needs the appropriate move category and battle context. Alternate forms may have different numbers and are excluded unless separately named. Copy the URL to preserve the level, IV, and EV preview, then open a related calculator for nature, damage, coverage, or GO appraisal work.
