Silcoon's Detailed Stats
Below you'll find a more detailed table containing Silcoon'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 Silcoon's Nature.
By default, the stats you see in the table below show four different possibilities, all assuming Silcoon 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.

Where to Find Silcoon
Unavailable in Pokémon Sword & Shield
Silcoon is unavailable in Pokémon Sword & Shield and cannot be transferred to either of those games from Pokémon HOME. You can still obtain it in earlier versions of Pokémon games and can still collect it for your National Pokédex in Pokémon HOME.
Getting Silcoon By Evolution
Evolves from Wurmple at level 7, although for only certain Wurmple (depending on personality values, so it is essentially random and the evolution is locked to each individual Wurmple). Otherwise it will evolve into Cascoon.
