In-Depth Analysis
With a base stat total of 330, Zorua plays as a balanced Pokémon with a flexible stat spread. Its standout stat is Special Attack at 80, while HP (40) is the clear soft spot — build sets that protect that weakness.
Its Dark typing leaves Zorua with 3 weaknesses against 2 resistances and 1 full immunity. Notably, it carries no 4× weaknesses, which makes it harder to punish. On offense, its STAB moves threaten 2 types for super-effective damage.
A catch rate of 75 puts Zorua in the moderate range — a few Great Balls usually get the job done. It levels on the Medium Slow experience curve. Defeating it grants Special Attack +1 EVs, which is worth remembering when EV-training your own team.
