Generation V identity and base stats

Scraggy is Unova #065 and National #559. Its original Black and White typing is Dark / Fighting. These figures describe the standard form in the original Nintendo DS games.

The illustration uses a standard Generation V sprite; colour, gender or seasonal forms can differ in the cartridge.

Where to obtain it in Black and White

Check the version and method columns before travelling. An encounter listed as a gift or stationary interaction does not mean Scraggy appears in ordinary grass. Level ranges combine matching slots within the same recorded condition.

The following records are filtered to Black and White. The table preserves separate seasons and special conditions. These are documented locations, not a promise that every encounter is available at the start of the story.

Friendship evolution uses the original Generation V threshold. Trades require a compatible second game and system; trading an Everstone holder prevents the evolution.

Abilities and breeding reference

Scraggy ability slots
Ability	Slot / availability
Shed Skin	Regular ability
Moxie	Regular ability
Intimidate	Hidden slot; historical availability must be checked

A Hidden Ability in the data is not proof of an obtainable original-game specimen. Some Hidden Abilities were never released in Generation V; the starter Contrary/Reckless/Shell Armor slots and Litwick-line Shadow Tag cannot be treated as ordinary Black/White catches.

Scraggy breeding and training facts
Property	Value
Gender ratio	50% female / 50% male
Egg group(s)	Field / Dragon
Base hatch cycles	15
Experience growth	Medium Fast
Base capture rate	180 / 255 (not a percentage chance)
EV yield when defeated	Attack +1

The No Eggs / Undiscovered group cannot produce Eggs. An Egg move must be inherited through an eligible parent in these original games; it is not automatically learned by every caught specimen.

FIELD NOTE

Use the exact Black or White method and condition before hunting Scraggy. Event prerequisites and evolution-only species need a different collection plan from ordinary wild encounters.
