In-Depth Analysis
Altaria's 490 base stat total marks it as a defensive Pokémon that shines at absorbing hits. Special Defense (105) carries most matchups, but a low Attack stat of 70 means careful positioning matters.
Its Dragon, Flying typing leaves Altaria with 4 weaknesses against 5 resistances and 1 full immunity. Watch out for Ice moves in particular — they land for 4× damage. On offense, its STAB moves threaten 4 types for super-effective damage.
A low catch rate of 45 makes Altaria a genuinely tough catch; bring strong balls and status moves. It levels on the Slow Then Very Fast experience curve. Defeating it grants Special Defense +2 EVs, which is worth remembering when EV-training your own team.
