What are the Odds of Getting a Hundo from a Trade?

When it comes to Pokémon trading, many players wonder about the chances of getting a 100% IV Pokémon, also known as a "hundo." In this article, we’ll dive into the statistics and provide an answer to this burning question.

The Basics of IVs

Before we dive into the odds, let’s quickly review what IVs are. IVs, or Individual Values, are unique to each Pokémon and determine its stats. A Pokémon’s IVs range from 0 to 31, with higher IVs indicating better stats. A 100% IV Pokémon, therefore, has IVs of 31 for all three stats (HP, Attack, and Defense).

The Odds of Getting a Hundo

According to the data, the odds of getting a hundo from a trade are 1.56%. This means that out of every 100 trades, you can expect to get a 100% IV Pokémon approximately 1.56 times.

Factors Affecting the Odds

While the overall odds are relatively low, there are some factors that can increase or decrease your chances of getting a hundo. Here are a few:

• Pokémon Level: The level of the Pokémon being traded can affect the IVs. Pokémon that are leveled up from a lower level are more likely to have better IVs, while Pokémon that are leveled up from a higher level are more likely to have worse IVs.
• Pokémon Type: Some Pokémon types are more likely to have better IVs than others. Psychic-type Pokémon, for example, are known for having higher IVs than Normal-type Pokémon.
• Rarity: Rarer Pokémon are more likely to have better IVs than commoner Pokémon.

Other Factors to Consider

While these factors can affect the odds, there are other things to keep in mind when trading for a hundo:

• Trade Volume: The more Pokémon you trade, the higher your chances of getting a hundo. Traders who trade frequently are more likely to get a hundo than traders who trade infrequently.
• IV Floor: The IV floor is the minimum IV value for a Pokémon. Pokémon with a high IV floor are more likely to have better IVs than Pokémon with a low IV floor.

Conclusion

In conclusion, the odds of getting a hundo from a trade are relatively low, at 1.56%. However, there are several factors that can increase or decrease your chances of getting a hundo. By understanding these factors and being mindful of your trading habits, you can increase your chances of getting a 100% IV Pokémon.

Table: IV Odds

Note: These odds are based on the assumption that IVs are randomly distributed and are not affected by other factors such as Pokémon level, type, or rarity.
