Generation V identity and base stats

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 Woobat 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.

Evolution family and original requirements
| From | Into | Original method |
|---|---|---|
| Woobat | Swoobat | Level up with friendship of at least 220 (Generation V) |
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
| Ability | Slot / availability |
|---|---|
| Unaware | Regular ability |
| Klutz | Regular ability |
| Simple | 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.
| Property | Value |
|---|---|
| Gender ratio | 50% female / 50% male |
| Egg group(s) | Flying / Field |
| Base hatch cycles | 15 |
| Experience growth | Medium Fast |
| Base capture rate | 190 / 255 (not a percentage chance) |
| EV yield when defeated | Speed +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.
Original Black and White level-up moves
| Level | Move |
|---|---|
| 1 / starting move | Confusion |
| 4 | Odor Sleuth |
| 8 | Gust |
| 12 | Assurance |
| 15 | Heart Stamp |
| 19 | Imprison |
| 21 | Air Cutter |
| 25 | Attract |
| 29 | Amnesia |
| 29 | Calm Mind |
| 32 | Air Slash |
| 36 | Future Sight |
| 41 | Psychic |
| 47 | Endeavor |
Level 1 entries are starting or reminder moves, not a guarantee that a later caught specimen already knows all of them. Evolution timing can change which moves are learned before the evolved form takes over. The Move Reminder charges a Heart Scale.

Egg moves and related species
Recorded original Egg moves: Supersonic, Charm, Flatter, Helping Hand, Knock Off, Fake Tears, Roost, Synchronoise, Stored Power.
Use the exact Black or White method and condition before hunting Woobat. Event prerequisites and evolution-only species need a different collection plan from ordinary wild encounters.
