Statues increase your chances of spotting different types of Pokémon. As an example, if you have a statue of Pikachu, then you're more likely to encounter Electric-type Pokémon while you're exploring the rooms in the Grand Underground. The Grand Underground is useful for a lot more than just building a base. Down these expansive caverns, Trainers can dig up fossils and find new types of Pokémon not seen above ground.
