Best Staraptor IVs by league
| League | Rank 1 IV | Lv | CP | 15/15/15 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Little | not allowed — must be unevolved and able to evolve | |||
| Great | 0/13/13 | 20 | 1500 | #629 |
| Ultra | 2/15/14 | 35.5 | 2500 | #2,158 |
| Master | 15/15/15 | 50 | 3194 | #1 |
Staraptor 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.

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Starly | 0/14/12 CP 500 | 15/15/15 CP 813 | 15/15/15 CP 813 |
| Staravia | ✕ | 15/15/15 CP 1468 | 15/15/15 CP 1468 |
| Staraptor | ✕ | 0/13/13 CP 1500 | 2/15/14 CP 2500 |
How good is Staraptor in the current meta?
PvPoke rates Staraptor #522 of 851 in Ultra League, with a score of 71.8 out of 100. The usual moveset is Wing Attack, Fly and Close Combat.
| League | PvPoke rank | Score | Usual moves |
|---|---|---|---|
| Great | #702 of 1,154 | 69.3 | Wing Attack, Fly, Close Combat |
| Ultra | #522 of 851 | 71.8 | Wing Attack, Fly, Close Combat |
These are two different questions. The IV ranks further up say which Staraptor to build; the meta rank says whether Staraptor 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 Staraptor
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 Staraptor 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.
