In-Depth Analysis
Quaquaval totals 530 across its base stats, profiling as a balanced Pokémon with a flexible stat spread. Lean on its Attack (120) when planning sets, and cover for its weaker Special Defense (75).
Its Water, Fighting typing leaves Quaquaval with 5 weaknesses against 7 resistances. Notably, it carries no 4× weaknesses, which makes it harder to punish. On offense, its STAB moves threaten 7 types for super-effective damage.
A low catch rate of 45 makes Quaquaval a genuinely tough catch; bring strong balls and status moves. It levels on the Medium Slow experience curve. Defeating it grants Attack +3 EVs, which is worth remembering when EV-training your own team.
