By the numbers: a data verdict worked out from base stats

Pokémon with the highest Attack

Ranked by base Attack, the stat that powers physical moves such as Earthquake and Close Combat. Every species in its standard form.

Base stats are not everything. Moves, abilities, items, types, teamwork and a good strategy often matter more than any single number. A huge Attack only helps with physical moves. A Pokémon also needs good moves of its own type, enough Speed to strike first and the bulk to survive a hit.

Ties share a rank (shown as “=”), and inside a tie the lower Pokédex number comes first. Standard forms only: Mega Evolutions and other forms are not included.
