Is Happiny good in Pokemon GO?

Happiny 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 (77 Defense / 225 Stamina) — it stays on the field longer, which suits shielded PvP formats.
  • A second charged move costs 10,000 Dust and 25 Candy.
  • Its moves get a damage boost in Partly Cloudy weather — worth timing raids around.

FAQ

What is the best moveset for Happiny in Pokemon GO?

Happiny's best moveset is Pound (fast) with Psychic (charged). Use a Fast TM or Charged TM to reroll onto it.

What are Happiny's weaknesses in Pokemon GO?

Happiny takes super effective damage from Fighting-type moves. It resists Ghost, so avoid those types against it.

What is Happiny's max CP in Pokemon GO?

Happiny reaches 419 CP at level 50 with XL Candy, or 371 CP at level 40. Level 50 needs XL Candy, which only unlocks at Trainer Level 31 and comes from catching, hatching, transferring and walking.

What CP is a 100% IV Happiny?

A perfect 15/15/15 Happiny shows 212 CP at level 20 (raid and egg catches) and 265 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.

How do you get Happiny in Pokemon GO?

Can Happiny be shiny in Pokemon GO?
