Stats & Training
Speed and Sp. Def carry most of Furfrou's stat budget. Defense's the obvious dump stat. Common in the wild and yields 1 Speed EV. Follows a medium-fast 1M XP curve.
There was an era when aristocrats would compete to see who could trim their Furfrou’s fur into the most exquisite style.
Left alone, its fur will grow longer and longer, but it will only allow someone it trusts to cut it.
Furfrou Weakness
Furfrou is weak to Fighting. On the flip side, it's immune to Ghost-type moves entirely. Furfrou's special bulk (base 90 Sp.Def) helps absorb special-type weaknesses, though physical moves exploit the lower Defense.
