Amaura has no raid or PvP ranking right now. Keep a high-IV one for the Pokedex and for future move updates or limited-format cups, and spend your Stardust elsewhere.
- Bulk-leaning spread (109 Defense / 184 Stamina) — it stays on the field longer, which suits shielded PvP formats.
- A second charged move costs 75,000 Dust and 75 Candy, and with 4 charged moves to pick from it is the single biggest PvP upgrade you can buy.
- Shadow Amaura deals 20% more damage and takes 20% more: better for raids, riskier in PvP.
- Its moves get a damage boost in Partly Cloudy and Snow weather — worth timing raids around.

FAQ
What is the best moveset for Amaura in Pokemon GO?
Amaura's best moveset is Frost Breath (fast) with Weather Ball Ice (charged). Use a Fast TM or Charged TM to reroll onto it.
What are Amaura's weaknesses in Pokemon GO?
Amaura takes super effective damage from Fighting, Steel, Grass, Ground, Rock, Water-type moves. It is double weak to Fighting, Steel (2.56× damage), so those attackers cut through it fastest. It resists Flying, Ice, Normal, Poison, so avoid those types against it.
What is Amaura's max CP in Pokemon GO?
Amaura reaches 1,541 CP at level 50 with XL Candy, or 1,363 CP at level 40. Level 50 needs XL Candy, which only unlocks at Trainer Level 31 and comes from catching, hatching, transferring and walking.
What CP is a 100% IV Amaura?
A perfect 15/15/15 Amaura shows 779 CP at level 20 (raid and egg catches) and 974 CP at level 25 (weather boosted). Seeing that exact number on the catch screen means it is a hundo — favourite it before you transfer anything.
Is Shadow Amaura better than regular Amaura?
Shadow Amaura deals 20% more damage and takes 20% more. For raids the trade is worth it; for PvP the lost bulk often is not. It arrives knowing Frustration, which should be replaced with a Charged TM during a Team GO Rocket event before you power it up.
How do you get Amaura in Pokemon GO?
Amaura spawns in the wild, though how often depends on your biome and the active event. It is currently a 1-Star Raids raid boss. It can be traded between trainers.
Can Amaura be shiny in Pokemon GO?
Shiny Amaura depends on whether Niantic has released the form. Check the events page for Community Days and event weekends, which is when shiny rates are boosted.
