What is Hidden Power Pokemon Calculator?

Hidden Power is a unique move in the Pokémon series whose Type and Base Power are determined solely by a Pokémon’s Individual Values (IVs). Since IVs are fixed when a Pokémon is caught or hatched, its Hidden Power is permanent.

Our calculator allows trainers to enter their Pokémon’s IVs to predict exactly which type of Hidden Power they will have. This is crucial for competitive play, where a Pokémon might need a specific Type (like Fire or Ice) to counter threats it wouldn’t normally be able to hit effectively.

How to Calculate Hidden Power Pokemon Calculator (Example):

  1. Determine the IVs of your Pokémon (e.g., HP: 31, Atk: 31, Def: 31, SpA: 31, SpD: 31, Spe: 31).
  2. Check if each IV is odd or even. For all 31s, all are Odd (1).
  3. Apply the Type Formula: (1 + 2 + 4 + 8 + 16 + 32) * 15 / 63 = 15.
  4. Match index 15 to the table: Dark Type.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ):

Does Hidden Power change when I evolve? No, IVs remain the same upon evolution, so the Hidden Power type is permanent.

What is the maximum Power? Before Generation VI, the maximum power was 70. From Gen VI onwards, it is fixed at 60.

Can Hidden Power be Fairy or Normal type? No, Hidden Power can never be Normal or Fairy type.

Are 31 IVs always best? Not necessarily. Sometimes you need an even IV (like 30) to change your Hidden Power to a specific type like Fire or Grass.
