Using it in a run

Paras spreads 285 base stat points. Its strongest stat is Attack (70) and its weakest is Speed (25), so the role that fits depends on how the rest of the run covers that gap.

Under the game's real multipliers it takes increased damage from Fire, Flying and Bug. It resists Electric, Fighting and Water in return. Use that to decide when to circle and when to leave, not to pick a favourite.

Its level-up learnset lists 8 moves; the hardest-hitting is Energy Ball at 90 power, available at level 47. That is the point where its damage actually changes.
