I ' d be okay with not making the playoffs this year with the stacked draft class . Don ' t get me wrong making the playoffs would be dope but idk how far we could go . <| sep |> IV ' s absolutely do matter . CP formula is not just adding or multiplying the numbers , it involves squaring . Basically the CP formula isATK Base ATK IV SqrtDEF Base DEF IV SqrtSTA Base STA IV Since the attack stat does not have a square root it will affect the outcome more . A level 30 Weedle with 1500 IVs will be 277 CPA level 30 Kakuna with 1500 IVs will be 287 CPA level 30 Weedle with 0015 IVs will be 243 CPA level 30 Kakuna with 0015 IVs will be 234 CPSo even if the IV percentage is the same it could have wildly different outcomes of CP .
