Deino 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 (93 Defense / 141 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 3 charged moves to pick from it is the single biggest PvP upgrade you can buy.
- Shadow Deino deals 20% more damage and takes 20% more: better for raids, riskier in PvP.
- Its moves get a damage boost in Fog and Windy weather — worth timing raids around.

A perfect 15/15/15 Deino shows 606 CP at level 20 (raid and egg catches) and 758 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.
