so it is pretty clear that cp is not a clear indicator of pokemon strength. i could have a rattata with 15 ivs in stamina and a ratatta with 13 ivs in atk or defense. the 13iv one would have a slightly lower cp but would technically be stronger. seems more like a general indicator for strength. is this the correct interpretation? what is it really there for then?
