How Crustle scales from level 1 to 15, and where it lands against the rest of the roster.
Level 15, scaled between the lowest and highest value across all 98 Pokémon rather than from zero — a full bar means best in the game.
How each stat scales from level 1 to max.

Values are as displayed in game. Percentages are additive with held items and emblems.
