Performance Insights

When compared to Noibat, Noivern gains a significant boost in attack power. This increase allows Noivern to more effectively use its powerful Flying and Dragon-type moves, such as Boomburst, Draco Meteor, and Hurricane. Noivern’s Infiltrator ability further enhances its offensive capabilities by allowing it to bypass defensive moves that would normally protect the opponent.

Technical Proficiency

Noivern’s high speed stat and decent bulk make it a versatile Pokémon that can fill various roles. It can function as a potent sweeper with its powerful attacks or as a supportive Pokémon with moves like Roost, U-turn, and Tailwind. Noivern’s Sonic Boom move, which always deals 20 damage, can effectively chip away at the opponent’s HP.
