Zapdos Base Stats

Zapdos is National Pokédex number 145 in this local canonical-species snapshot. Its base-stat total is 580. The six values are HP 90, Attack 90, Defense 85, Special Attack 125, Special Defense 90, and Speed 100. That distribution makes Special Attack the strongest raw axis at 125, while Defense is the lowest at 85. The radar draws those calculated level stats as geometry; it is a shape comparison, not an official rating.

The stored typing is Electric and Flying. Under the modern chart, ordinary type-only weaknesses include Ice, Rock, while resisted or immune attacking types include Grass, Fighting, Ground, Flying, Bug, 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 3 Sp. Atk EV. Its Slow growth group determines cumulative experience thresholds; it does not follow directly from the 580 base-stat total. The stored GO base values are Attack 253, Defense 185, and Stamina 207. 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 165, Attack 110, Defense 105, Special Attack 145, Special Defense 110, Speed 120. 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.
