Field Notes ✎ Observed (cross-referenced)

The Dex entry reads like a coronation notice: a "legendary serpent king" whose scales "shimmer like royal purple silk", who "controls toxic energy with a flick of its tail", and whose gaze "can freeze foes in place". The entry closes by naming it "the undisputed ruler of the wilds" — bold language for a creature that, strictly speaking, is never observed in the wilds at all, since it only exists where a trainer has raised one.

The regal theme runs through the whole line. Vipip, two Dex slots earlier, is logged as a small, watchful snake rattling warnings from tall grass; Vipour already unfurls its hood "like a royal cape" with a glowing forehead gem. Viparch is the throne-room finish of that progression. Standard catalogue values apply — SSS rarity, community rank E, listed for any weather (academic, given it does not spawn), and a maximum level of 90. Capture records flag an EM slot on this species; its trait table has not yet been documented.

Base Stats & Battle Role ✎ Observed (cross-referenced)

Community-verified base stats: 75 HP, 114 Attack, 65 Defense, 77 Sp. Atk, 65 Sp. Def, 106 Speed — a 502 total. The shape of the spread is unambiguous: Attack and Speed together carry nearly 44% of the total, while both defenses sit at a thin 65 over 75 HP. This is a fast physical attacker that wants to strike first and end exchanges quickly, not trade blows.

Its Poison typing hits Grass, Flying and Dragon targets hard, and it shrugs off Grass, Fighting and Bug attacks; Ground, Psychic and Rock threats punish those thin defenses badly, so check the Type Chart before committing it into an unknown matchup. As with any capture, the numbers you actually field depend on the talent grade rolled — from C at 40% of stat potential up to SSS at 100% — and on the nature's +10%/-10% swing; an Attack-raising nature compounds its best stat, while anything that docks Speed undercuts the whole plan.

Evolution & Where to Find ✎ Observed (cross-referenced)

The line runs Vipip (#37) → Vipour (#38) → Viparch (#39), and only the first stage is catchable: Vipip is documented in Murkwood, a fittingly shadowy habitat for a snake that watches from the undergrowth. Both later stages are recorded simply as "Via Evo" — the exact trigger for each step is not yet documented. Note that the community's stone records name Bug, Fire, Grass, Ice, Psychic, Rock and Water Element Stones in evolution lists, with no Poison stone documented for this line, so treat any specific stone claim for Viparch with suspicion until it is verified.

The practical route: travel to Murkwood, secure a Vipip — an Advance Ball guarantees the catch at a 100% rate — and raise it through Vipour. If a stone or item requirement does surface later, stones in general come from shops, chests and redeem codes, so keep an eye on the active codes list.
