Victini in the meta

PvE Analysis

⚔️ Raids

Victini is a Psychic- and Fire-type Mythical Pokémon, and a pretty great one at that.

It’s a decent Psychic-type raid attacker when using Confusion and Psychic.

However, it’s even better as a Fire-type raid attacker, using Quick Attack and V-Create!

As a Psychic-type raid attacker, Victini is strong against Fighting- and Poison-type Pokémon.

As a Fire-type raid attacker, it counters Bug-, Grass-, Steel-, and Ice-types.

While Victini can perform both roles well, if you want to save TMs, it is recommended to use Victini as a Fire-type raid attacker.

PvP Analysis

🔵 Great League

While Victini isn’t a top-tier Pokémon in the open meta, it excels in certain limited formats, such as the Psychic Cup, where its neutral Fire damage makes it devastating.

🟡 Ultra League

Victini is rarely used in Ultra League and does not see much play in this format.

🟣 Master League

Although Victini can technically be used in the Master League, it pales in comparison to other Legendaries and Mythicals that dominate the meta.

Catch probability with multiple throws

In order to help Trainers understand their overall odds when catching Victini, we enable the functionality to showing the total chance to catch it depending on the number of available throws. We calculate this chance as if you repeated the same throw N-number of times.

To activate this functionality, change the number of Number of throws to a value greater than 1. The Number of throws option is available in the configuration options above the chart

Catch rate formula

Pokémon GO catch rate formula can be expressed as follows:

CATCH_MULTIPLIERS = ball * curve * berry * throwType * (type1Medal + type2Medal / 2)
CATCH_RATE = 1 - Math.pow(1 - baseCatchRate / (2 * cpm), CATCH_MULTIPLIERS)

There are different multipliers that come into play when calculating catch rate.

Curved throws are more effective than regular throws, stronger types of Poké Ball have a higher catch rate, and using a Razz Berry or a Golden Razz Berry also improves your chances.
