Does Hidden Power Change with Level? An In-Depth Analysis
Hidden Power is a staple move in the Pokémon world, allowing trainers to predict and counter their opponents. But one question that crops up frequently is whether a Pokémon’s Hidden Power change with level. In this article, we’ll break down the facts and evidence to provide a comprehensive answer.
Direct Answer to the Question
**No, Hidden Power Does Not Change with Level.
Why Not?
Hidden Power is deeply tied to a Pokémon’s Individual Values (IV) and not its level or stats. IVs, as the name suggests, are unique to each individual Pokémon and remain constant no matter what level they ascend to. When a trainer evolves a Pokémon, whether through leveling up or experiencing a life-changing event in the game, the newly evolved Pokémon retains its identical IVs, including any Hidden Power it may already possess.
Evidence That Supports This Claim
If you’ve ever trained an Eevee and grown it to level 45, you’ll know the excitement of watching it turn into an Umbreon as it reaches level 61. But did you pay attention to its Hidden Power? If you did (and you should have,) you’ll notice that once the Eevee underwent its evolution, its hidden power remained the same- a testament to the concept that IVs remain with the Pokémon, regardless of level.
Fudging the Numbers: The Odds of a Level Change (or Not)
Just to put some perspective onto the matter, let us consider the odds of seeing a level change in combination with a Hidden Power.
- There are 128 possible IV combinations (think of it like a zip code: 6-number code with 0.5 increments).
- Let’s assume a Pokémon acquires a new Hidden Power at level 10 after evolving from a different monster.
- With the chances of a new Hidden Power being 1 in 128, the likelihood is extremely low, roughly estimated at 0.02%.
In order to achieve a level-influenced Hidden Power outcome, you’d need nearly 5,000 battles with a 50% success rate (!) to get the equivalent of a 1-of-128 chance of re-rolling IVs once more. No feasible scenario can lead to even a 1% reliable chance of this occurring consistently.
Level Progression and Hidden Power Calculations
In Generation X, Hidden Power relied almost entirely on the user’s IVs. Later titles, such as Generation Alpha, introduced more intricate stats and calculations to influence Hide Power. Here is roughly how it works:

The above table is simplified but depicts the core logic of computing Hidden Power in newer systems by aggregging

for calculation:
Level 1-2 1
Level x 1
level 3 * 40
level 4 etc.
Conclusion: How Hidden Power Relates (or Doesn’t)
In conclusion, understanding the intricacies of Invisible Might forces gamers- either rookie or veteran – to rely on the power of patience, persistence, and most importantly, knowledge of unique values. This understanding means that the Hidden Power’s level is fixed from there on, so that Hidden Power Does Not Transform with Level.
Throughout this article, we made it clear that there must be a fundamental distinction as to whether Hidden Power operates on a Pokémon’s true personality via Invisible Characteristics instead

For now on, it’s safe so say that level isn.
