In-Depth Analysis
With a base stat total of 680, Yveltal plays as a fast attacker that leans on outspeeding threats and hitting hard. Its standout stat is Attack at 131, while Defense (95) is the clear soft spot — build sets that protect that weakness.
Defensively, the Dark, Flying combination gives Yveltal 3 resistances, 2 immunities, and 4 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 Yveltal a genuinely tough catch; bring strong balls and status moves. It levels on the Slow experience curve. Defeating it grants HP +3 EVs, which is worth remembering when EV-training your own team.
