Stats & Training
Defense and Sp. Def carry most of Togepi's stat budget. Attack's the obvious dump stat. Common in the wild and yields 1 Sp. Def EV. Follows a fast 800K XP curve.
It transforms the kindness and joy of others into happiness, which it stores in its shell.
Togepi Weakness
Togepi's Normal typing leaves it vulnerable to Fighting. It shrugs off Ghost-type attacks completely. Just 1 weak spot to worry about, which keeps teambuilding straightforward.
| Damage | Types |
|---|---|
