Pokémon holding it in Reg M-B171

What it does

Holder's attacks do 1.3x damage, and it loses 1/10 its max HP after the attack.

Who holds it

171 of the 282 Pokémon measured on the Regulation M-B ladder hold Life Orb. The one that matters most is Kingambit, which is on 36.8% of teams and holds it on 12.5% of its sets. The full list is above, ordered by how much of the format each one is.

How concentrated it is

Across the ladder, Life Orb accounts for an expected 0.56 of the six slots on an average team, which makes it the 3rd most-brought of the 27 items this format runs. 8% of that comes from Kingambit alone, so it is spread across the field rather than propped up by one Pokémon. Its holders are mostly Water (25), Fire (23) and Fighting (21).

Where these numbers come from

Usage is Smogon's published statistics for the Regulation M-B VGC ladder, and the description is the one shipped in the Pokémon Showdown data set. Both are regenerated on every build rather than written by hand, so this page follows the format instead of trailing it. Take any of it to the team builder or the damage calculator.
