- Shadow Marshtomp deals 20% more damage and takes 20% more: better for raids, riskier in PvP.
- Its moves get a damage boost in Sunny and Rainy weather — worth timing raids around.

FAQ
What is the best moveset for Marshtomp in Pokemon GO?
Marshtomp's best moveset is Water Gun (fast) with Surf (charged). Use a Fast TM or Charged TM to reroll onto it.
What are Marshtomp's weaknesses in Pokemon GO?
Marshtomp takes super effective damage from Grass-type moves. It is double weak to Grass (2.56× damage), so those attackers cut through it fastest. It resists Electric, Fire, Poison, Rock, Steel, so avoid those types against it.
What is Marshtomp's max CP in Pokemon GO?
Marshtomp reaches 2,008 CP at level 50 with XL Candy, or 1,776 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 Marshtomp?
A perfect 15/15/15 Marshtomp shows 1,015 CP at level 20 (raid and egg catches) and 1,269 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 Marshtomp better than regular Marshtomp?
Shadow Marshtomp 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.
How do you get Marshtomp in Pokemon GO?
Evolve it from Mudkip (25 Candy). It can be traded between trainers.
Can Marshtomp be shiny in Pokemon GO?
Shiny Marshtomp 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.
