In-Depth Analysis
Bagon totals 300 across its base stats, profiling as a balanced Pokémon with a flexible stat spread. Lean on its Attack (75) when planning sets, and cover for its weaker Special Defense (30).
Defensively, the Dragon combination gives Bagon 4 resistances and 3 weaknesses to plan around. Notably, it carries no 4× weaknesses, which makes it harder to punish. Offensively it pressures 1 type with super-effective STAB coverage.
A low catch rate of 45 makes Bagon a genuinely tough catch; bring strong balls and status moves. It levels on the Slow experience curve. Defeating it grants Attack +1 EVs, which is worth remembering when EV-training your own team.
