This compares base numbers and the type chart; it does not predict a winner. A real battle also depends on level, nature and EVs, the moves each one knows (a Pokémon does not always learn a move of its own type), held items, weather and terrain, and abilities (Wo-Chien: Tablets of Ruin; Chien-Pao: Sword of Ruin), so either one can come out ahead.
Who moves first?
At Level 50 with 252 Speed EVs, 31 IVs and a neutral nature, Wo-Chien has 122 Speed and Chien-Pao has 187, so Chien-Pao moves first when both use moves of the same priority and no item, ability, status or stat change gets in the way.
| Speed | Wo-Chien | Chien-Pao |
|---|---|---|
| Base Speed | 70 | 135 |
| Level 50, 252 EVs, neutral nature | 122 | 187 |
