HP and Attack carry most of Type: Null's stat budget. Speed's the obvious dump stat. Near-impossible to catch and yields 2 HP EVs. Follows a slow 1.25M XP grind.
Type: Null Weakness
GoodType: Null is weak to Fighting-type moves. On the flip side, it's immune to Ghost-type moves entirely. Type: Null's overall bulk (95/95/95) lets it take a hit or two from most weaknesses before going down.
Type: Null is the evolved form of Type: Null, reached. A Normal type at 534 stats that still can't breed.
How to Evolve
max HP and Sp. Def EVs and Sassy nature turn Type: Null into a wall that doesn't fold easily. Eviolite brings a bulk boost that only works before full evolution for the long game, and Rest handles sustain. Battlearmor fills in the gaps.
