PokéBonk Builds

The three levers

The starter pages combine dex stats, complete source learnsets and curated League kits. Choose Squirtle for the defensive Torrent Shell passive, Bulbasaur for Photosynthesis sustain or Charmander for Blaze and its Fire-focused kit. These are mechanics-based preferences, not measured clear-speed rankings.

Level-ups normally offer three cards; the fourth-choice Lab unlock adds another option. Same-stat bonuses use the additive-stacking rules introduced in 0.5.3, while STAB and other separate damage factors still have their own operations. Chest items have individual caps, so a build cannot assume unlimited copies.

The Lab is permanent and costs Stardust. Its full 19-card price table and budget calculator now use the official v0.7.10 bundle. A fourth move costs 1,500 Stardust; a fourth upgrade option costs 3,000. The calculator also handles multi-rank cards.

Combat constants I can use later

Armor reduction is armor / (armor + 45). Cooldown is cooldown / attackSpeed. Crit damage starts at 1.75×; crit chance caps at 100% and dodge at 60%. The outgoing-hit code applies STAB at 1.25, or 1.5625 for Adaptability. Same-stat stacking and STAB are separate operations; the 0.5.3 additive-stacking change does not mean all damage factors are added together.
