Hit Points (HP)

Search Pokémon, Pokédex # or Move:

HP stands for Hit Points/Health Points and represents the maximum amount of damage a Pokémon can take in battle before fainting. During Gym battles the HP of both the attacking and defending Pokémon is shown in the form of a Health Bar. This is shown above the Stamina (Energy) bar.

Pokémon of the same species may have different amount of HP. For example, a player may have one Pikachu with 33 HP and another with 35 HP. Health Points are important, as Pokémon with higher levels of HP and CP will statistically perform better while attacking or defending at Gyms.

As long as a Pokémon has not fainted, its HP can be replenished by using Potions. Potions are items that can be found at Pokéstops and restores HP with the amount dependent on the type of Potion used.

Each Pokemon's HP is determined by its base stat Stamina. Check out Pokemon sorted by Stamina for more information.

Energy (Stamina)

Search Pokémon, Pokédex # or Move:

Energy (Stamina) is required by Pokemon to use Charge Moves in battle. Charge Moves are generally more powerful attacks than Fast Moves, but these moves are slower and require Energy (Stamina) to use.

Each Pokemon has a light blue Energy (Stamina) bar separated into multiple smaller bars, which refills about 20% per second during battle. The number of energy bars a Pokemon has is determined by its Charge Move. A Pokemon's Energy (Stamina) can also be replenished during battle by using Fast Moves or by taking damage.

When a Charge Move is used it will deplete of the attacking Pokemon's Energy (Stamina). The amount of Energy used is determined by the Move that is performed.
