Some "Pokemon GO" players recently discovered that hidden statistics mimic those of the original game, giving players an idea of a creature's rank according to its attack, defense, and stamina. It is useful if you want to build a team with different strengths and weaknesses, along with maximizing those stats to achieve the highest possible CP.

Next, we share with you, the best Pokémon for each statistic, revealed by The Silph Road portal. (Thanks to them and Serebii.net for the individual rankings and statistics, respectively.)

Additional information:

There are clues that Lapras' general CP has increased with the addition of the second generation.

We left it as it was for now, but we will update if it is confirmed. An interesting fact to take into account is that these statistics change frequently with the new changes brought by each new update. We did not include the statistics of the Legendary Pokemon because they have not been introduced to the game yet.

It is very likely that the legendary creatures will be introduced in the next few months but not this month as people were thinking and speculating in the social networks. This is all the information known so far. Keep enjoying the game, and stay tuned for more updates as they become available.
