Basics
Archeops is a Rock/Flying-type Pokémon. Its 100% IV CP is 1,903 at level 20 (raids, eggs and research), 2,379 at weather-boosted level 25 and up to 3,766 at level 50. It is weak to Water/Electric/Ice/Rock/Steel attacks (1.6×). It resists Normal/Fire/Poison/Ground/Flying/Bug attacks. In raids, Wing Attack + Ancient Power is its strongest moveset (level 40, 100% IVs). As your buddy, it earns 1 Candy every 5 km you walk together.

Said to be an ancestor of bird Pokémon, the muscles it uses to flap its wings are still weak, so it needs a long runway in order to take off.

- How to read IVs and appraisalsIVs run from 0 to 15 for each of Attack, Defense and HP, and appraisal stars are set by the sum of the three (0–45).
- What to power up first (power-up priorities for beginners)Stardust is limited, so first power up strong counters you'll use for a long time across many raids.
- Choosing IVs for PvP (low Attack wins in Great and Ultra League)In leagues with a CP cap, the lower the Attack IV, the higher you can level up within the same CP, which makes Defense and HP bigger.
