Verdict

Collector's Pick
Cetitan is a Ice-type Pokemon with base stats of 208/123/347 (Atk/Def/Sta) and a max CP of 3,519. While it doesn't currently rank among the top raid attackers or PvP contenders, every Pokemon has its place in a trainer's collection. Cetitan may shine during specific events, in limited-format cups, or when new moves are added in future updates. For now, hold onto a good IV specimen but save your Stardust and Candy for more impactful investments unless you're a dedicated fan of this Pokemon.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the best moveset for Cetitan in Pokemon GO?
Cetitan has multiple viable movesets depending on the battle format. The ideal moveset varies based on whether you are using Cetitan for raids, gym battles, or PvP — check the moves section above for a full breakdown of each move's DPS, energy cost, and coverage.
What are Cetitan's weaknesses in Pokemon GO?
Cetitan is weak to Fighting, Fire, Rock, Steel-type moves. On the other hand, Cetitan resists Ice-type attacks, so avoid using those types against it. To counter Cetitan effectively in raids and gyms, build a team using its weakest type matchups and pick attackers that have STAB moves of those types.
What is Cetitan's max CP in Pokemon GO?
Cetitan's maximum CP is 3,519 at level 50 (with XL Candy), or 3,113 at level 40. Reaching level 50 requires XL Candy, which is only available to trainers level 31 and above — earning XL Candy involves catching, hatching, transferring, and walking Pokemon. Cetitan's CP is calculated from its base stats: 208 Attack, 123 Defense, and 347 Stamina. Powering up from level 40 to 50 requires a significant investment of XL Candy and Stardust, so plan your resources carefully. A 100% IV Cetitan caught from raids or eggs (level 20) will have 1,778 CP, or 2,223 CP with weather boost (level 25).
What CP is a 100% IV Cetitan?
A perfect 15/15/15 IV Cetitan has the following CP at key levels: 1,334 CP at level 15 (research encounters), 1,778 CP at level 20 (raid and egg catches), 2,223 CP at level 25 (weather-boosted raids), and 3,519 CP at level 50 fully powered up. If you catch a perfect IV Cetitan, it is worth investing Stardust and Candy to power it up, especially if Cetitan ranks well in raids or PvP. A 100% IV (also called a "hundo") is the rarest IV combination, so tag and favorite it to make sure you don't accidentally transfer it.
How to get Cetitan in Pokemon GO?
Cetitan is obtained by evolving its pre-evolution (Cetoddle with 50 Candy). Cetitan can also be obtained through trading with other trainers.
Can Cetitan be shiny in Pokemon GO?
Shiny Cetitan's availability depends on whether Niantic has released its shiny form. Not all Pokemon have their shiny forms available yet. Check the current events page and Community Day announcements for any updates on shiny Cetitan availability and boosted shiny rates during special events.
