Stats & Training
Sp. Atk and Sp. Def carry most of Kyogre's stat budget. Defense's the obvious dump stat. Near-impossible to catch and yields 3 Sp. Atk EVs. Follows a slow 1.25M XP grind.
Through Primal Reversion and with nature’s full power, it will take back its true form. It can summon storms that cause the sea levels to rise.
Kyogre is said to be the personification of the sea itself. Legends tell of its many clashes against Groudon, as each sought to gain the power of nature.
Kyogre Weakness
Type-wise, Kyogre takes extra damage from Electric and Grass. 4 resistances help offset the weaknesses. Kyogre's special bulk (base 140 Sp.Def) helps absorb special-type weaknesses, though physical moves exploit the lower Defense.
