Is Huntail good in Pokemon GO?

Huntail 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 (197), 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.
  • Its moves get a damage boost in Rainy weather — worth timing raids around.
