Talk:Brute Bonnet (Pokémon)

Should the Trivia section include the Protosynthesis/Spore interaction?

If multiple stats tie, the stat that Protosynthesis boosts is prioritized Atk->Def->SpA->SpD->Spe. This gives uncertainty that min Atk = 118 and max Spe = 117 was a deliberate choice, since both being 117 would still prioritise Atk. Celestia74 (talk) 20:47, 17 January 2026 (UTC)

I agree the trivia point should be removed. It already contradicts itself by claiming that Brute Bonnet can never get a Speed boost from Protosynthesis and then admitting that Brute Bonnet can get a Speed boost from Protosynthesis at low levels. Brute Bonnet isn't the only Paradox Pokémon that's physically incapable of getting a certain stat boosted by its Ability, and it's not even the only Paradox Pokémon that's incapable of getting a Speed boost from its Ability - Iron Hands can't have its Speed boosted by Quark Drive because its Attack is too high. Sometimes Pokémon are just slow. Storm Aurora (talk) 22:32, 17 January 2026 (UTC)

Well, it has been going around as a trivia in the fandom and by more known people like https://www.youtube.com/shorts/LNUZOpvjY8A. Rocket Grunt 20:20, 20 January 2026 (UTC)

People can speculate about the reason for Brute Bonnet's stat distribution all they want, that doesn't necessarily make it notable enough to be trivia. Storm Aurora (talk) 20:00, 22 January 2026 (UTC)
