In-Depth Analysis
With a base stat total of 395, Beautifly plays as a balanced Pokémon with a flexible stat spread. Its standout stat is Special Attack at 100, while Defense (50) is the clear soft spot — build sets that protect that weakness.
Defensively, the Bug, Flying combination gives Beautifly 3 resistances, 1 immunity, and 5 weaknesses to plan around. Watch out for Rock moves in particular — they land for 4× damage. Offensively it pressures 5 types with super-effective STAB coverage.
A low catch rate of 45 makes Beautifly a genuinely tough catch; bring strong balls and status moves. It levels on the Medium experience curve. Defeating it grants Special Attack +3 EVs, which is worth remembering when EV-training your own team.
