Snorlax • Generation VIII Pokédex

Scarlet/Violet support is in the works!

This has been something that I've been wanting to update for awhile, and it is my current project to implement support for the new games and The Teal Mask DLC. Thank you for your patience as I work on this over the coming week or two!

Snorlax's Detailed Stats

Below you'll find a more detailed table containing Snorlax'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 Snorlax's Nature.

By default, the stats you see in the table below show four different possibilities, all assuming Snorlax 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.
