What are Coalossal's weaknesses in Pokemon GO?
Coalossal is weak to Ground, Water, Fighting, Rock-type moves. It has a double weakness to Ground, Water, taking 156% more damage from these types. When battling Coalossal, prioritize using Ground-type attackers to exploit this double weakness for maximum effectiveness.

What is Coalossal's max CP in Pokemon GO?
Coalossal's maximum CP is 2,659 at level 50 (with XL Candy), or 2,352 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. Coalossal's CP is calculated from its base stats: 146 Attack, 198 Defense, and 242 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 Coalossal caught from raids or eggs (level 20) will have 1,344 CP, or 1,680 CP with weather boost (level 25).

If you catch a perfect IV Coalossal, it is worth investing Stardust and Candy to power it up, especially if Coalossal 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.
