Burmy's Detailed Stats
Below you'll find a more detailed table containing Burmy's calculated stats, which are the stats that you actually see displayed in game. These are affected by a variety of things, such as level, Effort Values (EVs), Individual Values (IVs), and Burmy's Nature.
By default, the stats you see in the table below show four different possibilities, all assuming Burmy is level 100: its stats with 0 EVs, 252+ (max) EVs, 0 IVs, and 31 (max) IVs. Nature is not shown by default, so its maximum is 10% higher than shown here, and minium 10% lower.

Notes About Burmy
Burmy will change its cloak depending on where the last battle it was in took place. If it was outside, in tall grass, or a foresty area, it will turn into Plant Cloak; if it was inside of a cave, on a beach, or similar area, it will turn into Sandy Cloak; if it was inside of a building, it will turn into Trash Cloak. This is purely cosmetic on Burmy, but affects which form of Wormadam it evolves into, which cannot be changed after evolution.
