In-Depth Analysis
With a base stat total of 409, Braixen plays as a balanced Pokémon with a flexible stat spread. Its standout stat is Special Attack at 90, while Defense (58) is the clear soft spot — build sets that protect that weakness.
Its Fire typing leaves Braixen with 3 weaknesses against 6 resistances. Notably, it carries no 4× weaknesses, which makes it harder to punish. On offense, its STAB moves threaten 4 types for super-effective damage.
A low catch rate of 45 makes Braixen a genuinely tough catch; bring strong balls and status moves. It levels on the Medium Slow experience curve. Defeating it grants Special Attack +2 EVs, which is worth remembering when EV-training your own team.
