In-Depth Analysis
With a base stat total of 530, Greninja plays as a fast attacker that leans on outspeeding threats and hitting hard. Its standout stat is Speed at 122, while Defense (67) is the clear soft spot — build sets that protect that weakness.
Its Water, Dark typing leaves Greninja with 5 weaknesses against 6 resistances and 1 full immunity. Notably, it carries no 4× weaknesses, which makes it harder to punish. On offense, its STAB moves threaten 5 types for super-effective damage.
A low catch rate of 45 makes Greninja a genuinely tough catch; bring strong balls and status moves. It levels on the Medium Slow experience curve. Defeating it grants Speed +3 EVs, which is worth remembering when EV-training your own team.
