How Magikarp’s stat preview works

Magikarp is National Pokédex number 129 in this local canonical-species snapshot. Its base-stat total is 200. The six values are HP 20, Attack 10, Defense 55, Special Attack 15, Special Defense 20, and Speed 80. That distribution makes Speed the strongest raw axis at 80, while Attack is the lowest at 10. 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 Water. Under the modern chart, ordinary type-only weaknesses include Electric, Grass, while resisted or immune attacking types include Fire, Water, Ice, Steel. 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 1 Speed EV. Its Slow growth group determines cumulative experience thresholds; it does not follow directly from the 200 base-stat total. The stored GO base values are Attack 29, Defense 85, and Stamina 85. 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 95, Attack 30, Defense 75, Special Attack 35, Special Defense 40, Speed 100. 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.
