- Bulk-leaning spread (79 Defense / 146 Stamina) — it stays on the field longer, which suits shielded PvP formats.
- A second charged move costs 75,000 Dust and 75 Candy, and with 4 charged moves to pick from it is the single biggest PvP upgrade you can buy.
- Shadow Mareep deals 20% more damage and takes 20% more: better for raids, riskier in PvP.
- Its moves get a damage boost in Rainy weather — worth timing raids around.

FAQ
What is the best moveset for Mareep in Pokemon GO?
Mareep's best moveset is Tackle (fast) with Trailblaze (charged). Use a Fast TM or Charged TM to reroll onto it.
What are Mareep's weaknesses in Pokemon GO?
Mareep takes super effective damage from Ground-type moves. It resists Electric, Flying, Steel, so avoid those types against it.
What is Mareep's max CP in Pokemon GO?
Mareep reaches 1,120 CP at level 50 with XL Candy, or 991 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 Mareep?
A perfect 15/15/15 Mareep shows 566 CP at level 20 (raid and egg catches) and 708 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.
Is Shadow Mareep better than regular Mareep?
Shadow Mareep deals 20% more damage and takes 20% more. For raids the trade is worth it; for PvP the lost bulk often is not. It arrives knowing Frustration, which should be replaced with a Charged TM during a Team GO Rocket event before you power it up.

Mareep spawns in the wild, though how often depends on your biome and the active event. It can be traded between trainers.
Can Mareep be shiny in Pokemon GO?
Shiny Mareep depends on whether Niantic has released the form. Check the events page for Community Days and event weekends, which is when shiny rates are boosted.
