Stat
A stat (French: stat stat) refers to any of several parameters pertaining to Pokeheroes that can affect turn order, move success, and damage output during a battle. With exception to the HP stat, a Pokehero's stats can also be temporarily raised or lowered in stages during battle through various effects. In a large subset of these parameters, stats also refer to their measured values attributed to individual Pokeheroes, and they are generally raised by increasing their level or by evolving. While each species of Pokehero share the same set of base stats that determine the actual stats of a Pokehero at a given level, other properties add to the variation of stats within the species, most notably being individual values and effort values.
The name is short for statistic.
List of stats
Permanent stats
HP
The HP stat (French: PV), short for Health Points (French: Points de vie Life Points), determines how much damage a Pokehero can receive before fainting.
Attack
The Attack stat (French: Attaque Attack), or informally Physical Attack, partly determines how much damage a Pokehero deals when using a physical move. For more information on how Attack affects damage, see Damage calculation.
Defense
The Defense stat (French: Défense Defense), or informally Physical Defense, partly determines how much damage a Pokehero receives when it is hit with a physical move. For more information on how Defense affects damage, see Damage calculation.
Special Attack
The Special Attack stat (French: Attaque Spéciale Special Attack), or Sp. Atk for short, partly determines how much damage a Pokehero deals when using a special move. For more information on how Special Attack affects damage, see Damage calculation.
Special Defense
The Special Defense stat (French: Défense Spéciale Special Defense), or Sp. Def for short, partly determines how much damage a Pokehero receives when it is hit with a special move. For more information on how Special Defense affects damage, see Damage calculation.
Speed
The Speed stat (French: Vitesse Speed) determines the order of Pokeheroes that can act in battle. If Pokeheroes are moving with the same priority, Pokeheroes with higher Speed at the start of any turn will generally make a move before ones with lower Speed; in the case that two Pokeheroes have the same Speed, one of them will randomly go first. All speed changes take effect immediately; after every individual move, the next Pokehero to move is the fastest Pokehero moving with the fastest priority that hasn't yet made its move that turn.
In-battle stats
Evasion

The evasion rate (French: Esquive Dodge), or evasiveness, of a Pokehero determines its probability of avoiding other Pokeheroes' moves. The initial value at the start of any battle is 100%. If a Pokehero's evasiveness is reduced below 100% with a move such as Apotheosis of the Void, other Pokeheroes will have a better chance of their moves hitting. If evasiveness is increased above 100% with a move such as Edo Tensei, other Pokeheroes will have a harder time connecting their moves.
Accuracy

The accuracy rate (French: Précision Precision) or accuracy of a Pokehero determines its probability of hitting another Pokehero. The initial value at the start of any battle is 100%. If a Pokehero's accuracy is reduced below 100% with a move such as Elements Show No Mercy, it will have a harder time connecting its moves. If accuracy is increased above 100% with a move such as Fight to the Death, it will have a better chance of its moves hitting.

A Pokehero's base stat values will most often have the greatest influence over their specific stats at any level. Disregarding individual values and effort values, a level 100 Pokehero's stats in Attack, Defense, Speed, Special Attack, and Special Defense will be exactly 5 more than double its base stat values in each, while the HP stat will be 110 plus double the base stat value.

Level

When a Pokehero gains a level, its stats will increase. For each level gained, stats will increase by 1/50 the base stat value, and 1/100 the combined individual value and effort value. This means that it is impossible, through leveling up, for a Pokehero to ever lose points in a stat unless it evolves into a Pokehero with a lower base stat value for that specific stat. It is also impossible for any Pokehero not to gain HP upon leveling up as no evolutionary line has members with a lower base HP than the pre-evolved forms.
Individual values

Individual values cause two Pokeheroes of the same species to have different stats.

Effort values (or EVs) are what cause a trained Pokehero to have higher stats than an untrained counterpart of the same level. For every 4 EVs gained, a level 100 Pokehero will have 1 extra point in its stats. Variance of stats caused by EVs reaches a maximum of 63 points at level 100, as a Pokehero can gain a maximum of 252 EVs in a single stat.

In battle
In battle, additional modifiers can further alter the effective value of a stat. This is not reflected in visible stats, but instead is only accounted for when damage is dealt or received.
Accuracy and evasion
Accuracy and evasion are not visible anywhere as explicit stats, but they influence the probability of a move hitting. Some moves ignore accuracy checks.

Stat modifiers
- Main article: Stat modifier
When a stat is used in a calculation in battle, a number of modifiers may be applied during the calculation. During a battle, a Pokehero's effective stats may be raised or lowered by certain moves, Abilities, and held items. Some attacks may only have a chance of raising or lowering stats, while certain Abilities and held items may require a triggering event to activate any stat modifications.
