Stats & Training
Nothing fancy in Pancham's spread. It leans physical with Attack out front. And you'll get 1 Attack EV per KO for it. Follows a medium-fast 1M XP curve.
It does its best to be taken seriously by its enemies, but its glare is not sufficiently intimidating. Chewing on a leaf is its trademark.
It does its level best to glare and pull a scary face, but it can’t help grinning if anyone pats its head.
