Best Noivern IVs by league
| League | Rank 1 IV | Lv | CP | 15/15/15 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Little | not allowed — must be unevolved and able to evolve | |||
| Great | 0/15/12 | 20.5 | 1497 | #410 |
| Ultra | 0/15/14 | 38 | 2496 | #2,243 |
| Master | 15/15/15 | 50 | 3125 | #1 |
Noivern cannot enter Little League because it has already evolved. Little League only takes Pokémon that have not evolved yet and can still evolve, so the 500 CP cap is not the only rule.

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.

How good is Noivern in the current meta?

| League | PvPoke rank | Score | Usual moves |
|---|---|---|---|
| Great | #818 of 1,154 | 65.2 | Bite, Heat Wave, Hurricane |
| Ultra | #494 of 851 | 72.5 | Bite, Heat Wave, Hurricane |
| Master | #385 of 409 | 42.2 | Bite, Heat Wave, Hurricane |
These are two different questions. The IV ranks further up say which Noivern to build; the meta rank says whether Noivern 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 Noivern
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 Noivern 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.
