Permanent upgrades

Each Pokémon has its own purchased levels. Upgrade ladders show cost, cap and benefit so a coin budget can be converted into a concrete set of purchases.

What to do

Choose current and target levels for the intended partner.
Compare the total to your available coins.

Numbers & conditions

13 upgrade types. Per-level cost rounds to the nearest 10. HP +8 per level, attack +4%, movement +3%, cooldown −3% and critical chance +3 percentage points; caps differ by upgrade.
