Rank 1 IVs across the evolution line
IVs carry over when a Pokémon evolves, so pick the spread for the league you mean to play it in, not for the stage you caught it at.
| Pokémon | Little | Great | Ultra |
|---|---|---|---|
| Misdreavus | 0/13/14 CP 500 | 1/15/15 CP 1499 | 15/15/15 CP 2178 |

How good is Misdreavus in the current meta?

| League | PvPoke rank | Score | Usual moves |
|---|---|---|---|
| Great | #591 of 1,154 | 72.4 | Astonish, Dark Pulse, Shadow Sneak |
| Ultra | #742 of 851 | 59.8 | Astonish, Dark Pulse, Shadow Sneak |
These are two different questions. The IV ranks further up say which Misdreavus to build; the meta rank says whether Misdreavus is worth building at all. Ranks and movesets come from PvPoke, whose battle simulations produce them, and they move as the meta does.
How to find a good Misdreavus
The search-string generator builds a string you can paste into the search bar in Pokémon GO. It matches the CP, HP and appraisal stars of the top spreads above — pre-evolutions included — so you can sweep a whole storage box in one go.
To check a Misdreavus you already own, open the IV ranker and set its IVs. It ranks every stage of the evolution line at once and shows the meta rank beside the IV rank.
