Is Jolteon good in Pokemon GO?

Jolteon 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 (232), so it hits harder than it survives — a glass-cannon raid slot rather than a gym defender.
  • A second charged move costs 75,000 Dust and 75 Candy, and with 5 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.

FAQ

What is the best moveset for Jolteon in Pokemon GO?

Jolteon's best moveset is Volt Switch (fast) with Thunder (charged). Use a Fast TM or Charged TM to reroll onto it.

What are Jolteon's weaknesses in Pokemon GO?

Jolteon takes super effective damage from Ground-type moves. It resists Electric, Flying, Steel, so avoid those types against it.

What is Jolteon's max CP in Pokemon GO?

Jolteon reaches 3,265 CP at level 50 with XL Candy, or 2,888 CP at level 40. Level 50 needs XL Candy, which only unlocks at Trainer Level 31 and comes from catching, hatching, transferring and walking.

A perfect 15/15/15 Jolteon shows 1,650 CP at level 20 (raid and egg catches) and 2,063 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.
