Both strong

Both are powerful (BST ≥ 500)

HardBoth waysStats & power

The Both strong connection is one of the stats & power rules in the daily PokéWired Pokémon puzzle. Two Pokémon are linked by it when this holds: Both are powerful (BST ≥ 500).

It's not directional: it works both ways, so it doesn't matter which Pokémon goes on the left and which on the right. It belongs to the Hard rule set, so you'll only run into it in Hard puzzles.

Stat connections compare raw numbers — Speed, Attack, Defense, HP, base-stat totals and build — so they reward knowing which Pokémon is faster, bulkier or simply stronger.
