Verdict

Collector's Pick
Espurr is a Psychic-type Pokemon with base stats of 120/114/158 (Atk/Def/Sta) and a max CP of 1,424. While it doesn't currently rank among the top raid attackers or PvP contenders, every Pokemon has its place in a trainer's collection. Espurr 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 Espurr in Pokemon GO?
Espurr has multiple viable movesets depending on the battle format. The ideal moveset varies based on whether you are using Espurr 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 Espurr's weaknesses in Pokemon GO?
Espurr is weak to Bug, Dark, Ghost-type moves. On the other hand, Espurr resists Fighting, Psychic-type attacks, so avoid using those types against it. To counter Espurr 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 Espurr's max CP in Pokemon GO?
Espurr's maximum CP is 1,424 at level 50 (with XL Candy), or 1,259 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. Espurr's CP is calculated from its base stats: 120 Attack, 114 Defense, and 158 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 Espurr caught from raids or eggs (level 20) will have 719 CP, or 899 CP with weather boost (level 25).
What CP is a 100% IV Espurr?
A perfect 15/15/15 IV Espurr has the following CP at key levels: 539 CP at level 15 (research encounters), 719 CP at level 20 (raid and egg catches), 899 CP at level 25 (weather-boosted raids), and 1,424 CP at level 50 fully powered up. If you catch a perfect IV Espurr, it is worth investing Stardust and Candy to power it up, especially if Espurr 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 Espurr in Pokemon GO?
