Yveltal in Poke Survivor
Yveltal is #7 of 966. Like Xerneas, it has the same ×1.42 on Attack and Special Attack, 127 HP behind 95 and 98 defenses, and speed 120. The difference is typing: Dark and Flying give it a long move list on both sides and two near-immunities: Ground and Psychic hit it at only ×0.3.

How to play Yveltal
Yveltal's ability, Dark Aura, adds 8% to Dark moves, so build around them: Bite (into Crunch) as the opening melee, Dark Pulse (into Snarl) for a ring of shots, and Night Slash (into Darkest Lariat) for a spin. Flying gives range options, such as Gust, Air Slash and Aerial Ace. With two types it gets no single-type bonus. Both sides are equal, so choose by shape: a melee or spin if you like to close in, Nova and homing shots if you kite.

Where to get Yveltal
Yveltal is a 5-star on the Kalos gacha banner: 5-stars land on 1.5% of pulls, and 70 dry pulls guarantee the next one. As a rift legendary it never joins normal waves. From about 1:45 a distortion rift can open with it inside; the two-minute fight pays tickets toward that pull.
