Is Keldeo (Resolute) good in Pokemon GO?

| Lv 20 → 40 | 135,000 | 15 | — |
Tier B at rank #14 makes Keldeo (Resolute) a useful Poison-type filler rather than an endgame pick. Build one if your Poison bench is thin, but keep the XL Candy for something stronger.
- Attack is its highest stat (260), so it hits harder than it survives — a glass-cannon raid slot rather than a gym defender.
- A second charged move costs 100,000 Dust and 100 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 Cloudy and Rainy weather — worth timing raids around.
