| HP | 60 | 78 | 90 | 123 | 270 | 24 |
| Biggest attack | 20 | 30 | 70 | 120 | 190 | 24 |
Trainer and energy cards carry no HP or attack, so they are left out of these counts rather than entered as zero. "Biggest attack" is the largest printed damage number on the card, before any condition the attack text adds.
HP printed on the 24 Forretress cards that carry one. The typical card is 90 HP. Bar length is that HP against the highest in the group.
Half of these cards sit between 78 and 123 HP. The distance between the two ends is what a single average would have hidden.

| Upper quarter | 45.6% of the highest | 123 HP |
| Highest | 100.0% of the highest | 270 HP |
The largest printed damage number on each of the 24 Forretress cards that print one. The typical card hits for 70. Bar length is that number against the hardest hitter in the group.
Half of these cards hit between 30 and 120. Attack text that adds a condition is not counted here — only the printed number.

| Cards with an Ability | 9 | 37.5% |
| Cards with a special rule | 4 | 16.7% |
Standard and Expanded are the two tournament formats. A card leaves Standard when its set rotates out, so this share moves each year while the card itself does not change.
Each track is the whole of the 24 Forretress cards on file, so the empty part of a bar is the share the answer does not cover.
The four rows are not slices of one whole — a card can be legal in Standard and carry an Ability at the same time, so the bars are read one at a time against the group.

Cheapest first. Each card opens its own price page. Prices exclude shipping, which on a card at this level is usually more than the card.
These six together cost $2.24, against $72.49 for the single dearest Forretress card. The two ends of the same group sit 345× apart, and both of them are correctly described as "Forretress".
How Forretress compares with the other Pokémon
"Which Pokémon is the most expensive" has three different answers depending on what you measure, so this section keeps them apart.
Ranked by its single dearest card, Forretress is number 166 of 206 Pokémon, on Skyridge #9 at $72.49. By card count it is number 200, and by the price of an ordinary card number 169 — three different answers to "is it the most expensive".
