Ekans

Poison
Available for SV PLZA BDSP LGPE
Order Ekans — free

Ekans is a Poison-type Pokémon (National Dex #23) with a low stat total of 288. You can have one built for Scarlet & Violet, Legends: Z-A, BDSP and Let's Go, and every copy is generated through the same PKHeX legality engine Pokémon HOME uses on deposit.

Its best stat is Attack at 60, which makes it a balanced all-rounder. Attack and Special Attack sit close together, so it can run either a physical or a special set depending on what your team needs. When you order one here you pick the nature, EV spread, IVs and Tera type yourself, so you can build the exact spread the set calls for rather than breeding for it.

Defensively, Ekans takes super-effective damage from Ground, Psychic. It resists Grass, Fighting, Poison, Bug, Fairy. Its ability options are Intimidate, Shed Skin, Unnerve, and you choose which one your copy carries.

Ekans evolves into Arbok (22). You can order any stage directly rather than raising it — useful when you want the final evolution at a specific level, or the pre-evolution with an egg move it can only learn early.

In-game, Ekans has 60 recorded encounter locations across Scarlet & Violet (23), Legends: Z-A (12), BDSP (20), Let's Go (5) — listed in full below with levels, catchable marks and legal Poké Balls. A shiny Ekans ordered here is built with a legal PID and Encryption Constant, so it passes the same checks a hunted one does.
