Eviolite Champs: Gen 7!

With the release of the new generation (Which is extremely fun by the way.), i decided i would update my eviolite program with all the new pokemon!

Here is all the gen 7 pokemon that get higher defense stats than their evolutions thanks to eviolite:
Cosmoem > Solgaleo | Def: *196* > 107
Cosmoem > Solgaleo | SpD: *196* > 89
Cosmoem > Lunala | Def: *196* > 89
Cosmoem > Lunala | SpD: *196* > 107
Sandygast > Palossand | Def: *120* > 110
Popplio > Brionne | Def: *81* > 69
Popplio > Brionne | SpD: *84* > 81
Type: Null > Silvally | Def: *142* > 95
Type: Null > Silvally | SpD: *142* > 95
Morelull > Shiinotic | Def: *82* > 80
Morelull > Shiinotic | SpD: *112* > 100
Bounsweet > Steenee | Def: *57* > 48
Bounsweet > Steenee | SpD: *57* > 48
Stufful > Bewear | SpD: *75* > 60
Mudbray > Mudsdale | Def: *105* > 100
Crabrawler > Crabominable | Def: *85* > 77

Charjabug > Vikavolt | Def: *142* > 90
Charjabug > Vikavolt | SpD: *112* > 75
Hakamo-o > Kommo-o | Def: *135* > 125
Brionne > Primarina | Def: *103* > 74
Brionne > Primarina | SpD: *121* > 116
Litten > Torracat | Def: *60* > 50
Litten > Torracat | SpD: *60* > 50
Dartrix > Decidueye | Def: *112* > 75
Dartrix > Decidueye | SpD: *105* > 100
Jangmo-o > Hakamo-o | Def: *97* > 90
Rowlet > Dartrix | Def: *82* > 75
Rowlet > Dartrix | SpD: *75* > 70

This generation only has one pokemon that can surpass its evolution with eviolite though!
Type: Null > Silvally | BST: 628 > 570
Def: *142* > 95
SpD: *142* > 95

(Previous Champ) Porygon2 > Porygon-Z | BST: *607* > 535
Def: *135* > 70
SpD: *142* > 75

As you can see, it's more than enough to beat porygon-2! Therefore we have a new eviolite champ!

The Mega Mewtwo Challenge

I've been messing around with the idea of stats in pokemon.

Both Mewtwo X and Y have the highest base stat total out of all the pokemon, but i wonder, could any Pokemon effectively beat them in stats?

Mega Mewtwo X:
HP: 322
ATK: 385
DEF: 205
SP ATK: 313
SP DEF: 205
SPEED: 265
+127 in full EVs
+186 in full IVs (31*6)
Full Stat Total: 1822-2008 (Variance is in IVs)

Pikachu:
HP: 180
ATK: 115
DEF: 85
SP ATK: 105
SP DEF: 105
SPEED: 185

Now at first glance Pikachu doesn't seem like it could be a very strong pokemon, but there happens to be a special item for Pikachu, the awesome Light Ball!
When held, pikachus attack and special attack are doubled!
So if we strategically add full EVs to these specific stats, we'll get a higher stat total!

Pikachu (EVs and IVs):
HP: 180 + 31 = 211
ATK: 115 + 31 + 63 = 209
DEF: 85 + 31 = 116
SP ATK: 105 + 31 + 63 = 199
SP DEF: 105 + 31 = 136
SPEED: 185 + 31 + 1 = 217

Now, we'll add a Nature! Natures increases one stat and decreases another by 10%.
Since multiplying adds more the bigger the number is, we will choose the attack stat, as it is the largest of the two stats.
Then we decrease the defense stat, because it's the lowest stat out of all of them, therefore we lose less.

Pikachu (Lonely nature, with Light Ball):
HP: 211
ATK: 209 * 1.1 * 2 = 458
DEF: 116 * 0.9 = 104
SP ATK: 199 * 2 = 398
SP DEF: 136
SPEED: 217
Full Stat Total: 1273-1536

And here we have the full stat total of Pikachu!

While it doesn't reach the stat total of Mega Mewtwo, the attack stat we built up is more than enough to take a lot of pokemon down in just a couple hits, provided it doesn't get hit itself!

Porygon-2:
HP: 280
ATK: 165
DEF: 185
SP ATK: 215
SP DEF: 195

SPEED: 125
+127 in full EVs
+186 in full IVs (31*6)
Full Stat Total: 1478

The Eviolite Champ returns! Eviolite multiplies defense and special defense by 1.5, so here we'll use the same techniques and see if we can't get higher.

Porygon-2 (Sassy nature, with Eviolite):
HP: 280 + 31 + 1 = 312
ATK: 165 + 31 = 196
DEF: (185 + 31 + 63) * 1.5 = 418
SP ATK: 215 + 31 = 246
SP DEF: (195 + 31 + 63) * 1.1 * 1.5 = 475

SPEED: (125 + 31) * 0.9 = 140
Full Stat Total: 1569-1787

Picking up where Pikachu left, we're definitely closer. It isn't over yet though, because 2 abilities effectively increase it even more!

Download: On switch-in, increases Atk or Sp. Atk by 1 stage based on the opponents weaker stat.
1 stage is 1.5, and since this is activated on switch-in, this is effectively a free boost!

ATK: 196 * 1.5 = 294
or
SP ATK: 246 * 1.5 = 369
Stat Bonus: 98 or 123

Analytic: 1.3x power on attacks when moving last.
From my research, i found out multiplying move power is like multiplying the attack stat. 1.3 is less than 1.5, so it sadly doesn't reach as high as Download does!

These may prove useful in different situations, but we got the highest total up to 1910, thats crazy close!

List of Eviolite Champs

So, i'm a fan of pokemon.
Using Pokemon Showdown's data, i did something pretty cool.

For those who don't know, Eviolite is an item that raises the Defense and Sp. Defense by 50% only for pokemon that have an evolution.

So i searched for pokemon that could replace their evolutions using eviolite!

Here is all the pokemon that get at least one defense stat higher!



And here is all the pokemon that get a greater base stat total as a result!

Doublade > Aegislash | BST: *547* > 520

Probably most notable is Porygon-2, as it gets the highest total out of all of them and even passes the pseudo-legendary mark!

My Nintendo Maximum Points

I've got so many points and nothing to spend it on...

What is the absolute most amount of platinum points that somebody could have right now?

There are 123 days from the release of My Nintendo to the end of July.
So that means 17 weeks and 4 months will have occured.

Using the missions in the chart from my previous post: (Miitomo included.)
200 for pre-registering.
610 points for all the one-time missions!
And 70 from the E3 event!
35 points daily on Miitomo!
Then a weekly bonus of 120 points for signing in everything.
Then a monthly bonus of 10 for being part of the newsletter.

200 +
610 +
70 +
(35*days) +
(120*weeks) +
(10*months) =

With the complete formula ready, we can figure out the most somebody can have by the end of the month.
That number is...

7265

Thats like 7 games, if only there was that much!

My Nintendo Chart

I've been enjoying the My Nintendo website for quite a while now, and as of this post, i have over 1200 Platinum points stored up! But of course, i started to wonder, what's the most you can earn with what you are willing to do?
