Best Status Spreader — Ranking Pokemon by Status Move Access

Not all Pokemon have equal access to status moves. This tool cross-references 277 status moves against the learnsets of all 1,025 Pokemon to find which ones can inflict the widest variety of conditions.

Guaranteed vs. Secondary Chance

Some moves always inflict their status: Thunder Wave is 100% paralysis, Will-O-Wisp is 100% burn, and Spore is 100% sleep. Others carry a secondary chance — Scald has a 30% burn rate, Ice Beam has a 10% freeze chance. Use the "100% chance only" filter to focus on moves with guaranteed infliction.

Status Ailments by the Numbers

  • Paralysis — 23 moves cause it; halves the target's speed and adds a 25% full-paralysis chance each turn
  • Burn — 22 moves; halves physical attack power and deals 1/16 HP residual damage per turn
  • Poison — 16 moves; regular poison deals 1/8 HP per turn, Toxic ramps up each turn
  • Sleep — only 8 moves can inflict it, making reliable sleep setters extremely valuable
  • Freeze — 7 moves carry a freeze chance, but none guarantee it

Filter by ailment type to compare all moves that inflict a specific condition, or search by name to find a particular move's details.
