Duosion 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.
- Attack is its highest stat (208), 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 3 charged moves to pick from it is the single biggest PvP upgrade you can buy.
- Shadow Duosion deals 20% more damage and takes 20% more: better for raids, riskier in PvP.
- Its moves get a damage boost in Windy weather — worth timing raids around.

Duosion's best moveset is Zen Headbutt (fast) with Thunder (charged). Use a Fast TM or Charged TM to reroll onto it.
What are Duosion's weaknesses in Pokemon GO?
Duosion takes super effective damage from Bug, Dark, Ghost-type moves. It resists Fighting, Psychic, so avoid those types against it.

A perfect 15/15/15 Duosion shows 1,153 CP at level 20 (raid and egg catches) and 1,441 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.

Can Duosion be shiny in Pokemon GO?
