In-Depth Analysis
With a base stat total of 640, Gyarados plays as a high-end Pokémon with strong numbers across the board. Its standout stat is Attack at 155, while Special Attack (70) is the clear soft spot — build sets that protect that weakness.
Defensively, the Water, Dark combination gives Gyarados 6 resistances, 1 immunity, and 5 weaknesses to plan around. Notably, it carries no 4× weaknesses, which makes it harder to punish. Offensively it pressures 5 types with super-effective STAB coverage.
A low catch rate of 45 makes Gyarados a genuinely tough catch; bring strong balls and status moves. It levels on the Slow experience curve. Defeating it grants Attack +2 EVs, which is worth remembering when EV-training your own team.
