Pokemon GO PvP IV Calculator

In PvP, the best IVs aren't 15/15/15 — a lower Attack IV usually wins because it lets you hit a higher level (more bulk) under the league's CP cap. Pick a Pokémon and league to see the top-ranked IVs, and enter your own IVs to see their rank.

The best PvP IVs aren't 15/15/15

The Pokémon GO PvP IV calculator finds the best IVs for a league's CP cap and ranks any IV spread you enter. In PvP a lower Attack IV usually wins, because it lets you reach a higher level — more bulk — under the cap, and the Pokémon GO PvP IV calculator measures that with stat product.

Stat product = Attack × Defense × HP at the highest level under the CP cap

How to use it

Pick a Pokémon and a league (Great 1500, Ultra 2500 or Little 500). The Pokémon GO PvP IV calculator lists the top-ranked IVs with their level and CP, and you can enter your own Attack/Defense/Stamina IVs to see exactly where they rank.

Why stat product?

In capped leagues, overall bulk matters more than a tiny attack difference, so stat product is the standard ranking. For example, a rank-1 Great League Azumarill is the bulky 0/15/15 spread, not a perfect 15/15/15.

Frequently asked questions

Why is a low-Attack IV better for PvP?

Stat product (Attack × Defense × HP) at the highest level allowed by the CP cap decides bulk. A lower Attack IV lets you power up further before hitting the cap, raising overall stat product.

What is stat product?

Attack × Defense × HP at your level — the standard way to rank PvP IVs, since bulk matters more than a tiny attack difference in capped leagues.
