Request Base Stat Values for your created Pokémon

[Ket Shi]

Anyone that would like me to do base stat totals for their created Pokémon, please ask me here. Here's how it works...

1. What are Base Stats?

- Base Stats is what determines a Pokémon's overall stat growth as it levels up. For example, base stats dictate that an Alakazam will be pathetic at Attack, but excellent at Special Attack. No matter what a Pokémon's personality, personal stat values, or effort values might be, Base Stats determine most of an overall Pokémon's stats.

2. So, how should I request these?

-Give a general description for each Pokémon you'd like me to give base stats on. For example, say that "Bug1 is a first evolution out of a 3 evolution line. I'd like low Attack, medium Defense, terrible speed, excellent Special Attack, good Special Defense, and decent HP for a first stage out of 3. Overall the stat totals would be low, as expected. Final evolution will have high stats, though."
Then again, if you don't care, I'll just randomize...
Just tell me which ones you'd like me to do, and optionally, which kind of stat totals you want.

3. Can you give me some examples of Stat Totals?

-Of course! Just if you want an example of how stat totals work, here's Regirock's stat totals:
HP: 80 (good)
Attack: 100 (great)
Defense: 200 (fantastic!)
Speed: 50 (bleh)
Special Attack: 50 (bleh)
Special Defense: 100 (great)

And here's Luvdisc's stats...
HP: 43 (bad)
Attack: 30 (awful)
Defense: 55 (bleh)
Speed: 97 (great)
Special Attack: 40 (bad)
Special Defense: 65 (average)

And Pikachu's:
HP: 35 (yuck)
Attack: 55 (bleh)
Defense: 30 (awful)
Speed: 90 (cool)
Special Attack: 50 (bleh)
Special Defense: 40 (paper thin)

With Clefable's:
HP: 95 (cool)
Attack: 70 (okay)
Defense: (okay) 73
Speed: 60 (bleh)
Special Attack: 85 (cool)
Special Defense: 90 (cool)

Get the hang of it? I sure hope so.

For any created Pokémon that need stats generated, give me a call. ;D

By the way, even if you're making a first-stage Pokémon, try to keep its stat totals around 250 or slightly above. Only special Pokémon designed to be weak (such as Magikarp and Wurmple) should have stats below that. And on another note, try to keep final forms of Pokémon with stat totals between 400-500. Any higher than 500 usually signifies a very special Pokémon (Arcanine, Tyranitar) or a Legendary.

When making the base stats of evolving Pokemon, I usually tend to work backwards. It's easier to take away once you've finalized the End Evolution's stats, since they're going to end up being the final stop for your Pokemon anyway. And most people tend to focus on the final stage. Plus, I'd assume it's simpler for people to look at a Pokemon with a 120 Stat and say that it's good instead of trying to determine whether an 85 is also in the same league of 'goodness' that the 120 is in when valuating the lower evo.

Most Pokemon have their basic stats in easily identifiable Patterns. They are also more often than not beneficial to the Pokemon, if made by a fan like one of us. A Special Type Pokemon WILL have higher Special Attack and/or Special Defense, and same for the Physical. You can be sure that we won't go as far as to make another Sneasel (No offense Sneasel4Ever).

Some patterns...

-High Speed and High Attack/Special Attack. Low defenses.
-High Defense and Special Defense or High HP. Low Speed.
-High Attack and Defense/Sp.Atk and Sp.Def, depending on type. Moderate stats in everything else.
-Ridiculously high stats from idiots who can't do base stats.

Thanks for adding some more information about the base stat patterns, V Faction. If anyone needs examples of base stats to work from, please go to...

pokefor.tk

Under the "Advance Generation: Ruby/Sapphire" title, there's a section detailing the base stats of all Pokémon. Check it out if you need a good example of how they work.

I don't exactly understand this. Here's my created Pokémon:

Name: Clipmonk
Type: Normal
Species: Claw Chipmonk
PokéDex: CLIPMONK was recently found on a tree hole. It has incredible claws for it's size. These claws are capable of slashing a tree in half.
Height: 2 ft
Weight: 16 lbs
Ability: Pickup
Forward Sprite:
Back Sprite: (In a while)
Mini Sprite: ^
Base Stats: ^
HP: 28
Attack: 30
Defense: 38
Speed: 55
Special Attack: 30
Special Defense: 40
Total Stats: 193
Effort Value: 1

So what would be it's Base Stat?

[Ket Shi]

The base stats for Chipmonk are very low. Try for at least 250 total points into a Pokémon's overall stat total.

Also, what does it give for effort value? Speed?

Don't forget to add if it has an evolution, and if so, how it evolves.

[kyogroudon]

Yeah it gives 1 speed effort. It evolves into a flying squirrel Pokémon I haven't made yet. What should I change about it's stats?

Here's the edited Clipmonk info:

Name: Clipmonk
Type: Normal
Species: Claw Chipmonk
PokéDex: CLIPMONK was recently found on a tree hole. It has incredible claws for it's size. These claws are capable of slashing a tree in half.
Height: 2 ft
Weight: 16 lbs
Ability: Pickup
Forward Sprite:
Back Sprite:
Mini Sprite:
Base Stats: ^
HP: 28
Attack: 30
Defense: 38
Speed: 55
Special Attack: 30
Special Defense: 40
Total Stats: 193
Effort Value: 1 speed

I like the Mini sprite! However, the front and back sprites need a little smoothing out. Would you like me to try to improve on them a little?

Oh, by the way, not even Rattata has stats that low. It has a 253 stat total.

Rattata's stats:
HP: 30
Attack: 56
Defense: 35
Speed: 72
Special Attack: 25
Special Defense: 35

Just bump up Chipmonk's base stats until they're around 250 total.

By the way, once you finish the whole Chipmonk, with movesets, egg moves, and the like, be sure to post it in the created Pokémon forum.

[kyogroudon]

Yes you can smooth them out and thanks.

How about this?
HP: 30
Attack: 55
Defense: 38
Speed: 61
Special Attack: 30
Special Defense: 40

So it's 254 now. So these are are base stats? Lemme work on the info a little further.

Is that okay for a new Chipmonk?

It's Clipmonk and thank you!

Hey, one final tip for base stats: Try to find your Pokémon's counterpart and work from that. For example, the Leta line is a pseudo-legendary, just like Dragonite and Tyranitar. I say Dragonite and Tyranitar because Metagross and Salamence don't follow the evolution pattern anymore so I don't trust them. So, I went to pokefor in Firefox, enjoyed the neat Pokédex layout while opening Dratini and Larvitar's entries in two different tabs, and then checked them out for reference.
