Is Darmanitan (Galarian standard) good in Pokemon GO?
| Power up | Stardust | Candy | XL Candy |
|---|---|---|---|
| Lv 20 → 40 | 135,000 | 15 | — |
Darmanitan (Galarian standard) is a Tier A Ice-type attacker at rank #7, so the Stardust pays for itself in raid damage. Take it to level 40 first; XL Candy to 50 only matters once you already have a full team of six.
- Attack is its highest stat (263), so it hits harder than it survives — a glass-cannon raid slot rather than a gym defender.
- A second charged move costs 50,000 Dust and 50 Candy, and with 4 charged moves to pick from it is the single biggest PvP upgrade you can buy.
- Its moves get a damage boost in Snow weather — worth timing raids around.
