Stats & Training
Attack and Sp. Def carry most of Komala's stat budget. HP's the obvious dump stat. Tough to catch and yields 2 Attack EVs. Follows a slow 1.25M XP grind.
It stays asleep from the moment it’s born. When it falls into a deep sleep, it stops moving altogether.
It remains asleep from birth to death as a result of the sedative properties of the leaves that form its diet.
Komala Weakness
Komala's Normal typing leaves it vulnerable to Fighting. It shrugs off Ghost-type attacks completely. Komala's special bulk (base 95 Sp.Def) helps absorb special-type weaknesses, though physical moves exploit the lower Defense.
