Ekans

Ekans is a Poison-type mons. Base stats: Attack 110 · Defense 97 · Stamina 111. Maximum CP at level 50 is 1061. The shiny variant is released and can be encountered in the game. Use the IV calculator below to lock the exact stats from your appraisal bars.

The exact CP a perfect 15/15/15 Ekans shows at each encounter type. If the CP matches, it can be a hundo — verify with the IV calculator.

Purify-to-hundo: a shadow Ekans caught at exactly these CPs is 13/13/13 — purification adds +2 to every IV, making it a guaranteed 15/15/15.

Not for raids — with 1061 max CP, Ekans matters more in PvP brackets, where stat product beats raw power. Check its league ranks before investing.

IV note: Ekans has functional-hundo spreads — certain sub-perfect IVs perform identically to a 15/15/15 at the level cap, so don't transfer a near-miss before checking.

Every stage of Ekans's evolution line with the candy cost between stages. IVs carry through evolution — a high-IV early stage is worth keeping and evolving.

Ekans can still learn these retired moves — via an Elite TM, or free during events that re-feature them (Community Day classics, GO Fest). Often the difference between a bag-filler and a meta pick.
