Verdict

Collector's Pick
Morelull is a Grass/Fairy-type Pokemon with base stats of 108/119/120 (Atk/Def/Sta) and a max CP of 1,168. While it doesn't currently rank among the top raid attackers or PvP contenders, every Pokemon has its place in a trainer's collection. Morelull may shine during specific events, in limited-format cups, or when new moves are added in future updates. For now, hold onto a good IV specimen but save your Stardust and Candy for more impactful investments unless you're a dedicated fan of this Pokemon.

Shadow vs Regular: Shadow Morelull deals 20% more damage but takes ~20% more. For raids, Shadow is generally the better investment. For PvP, evaluate matchups carefully — the bulk loss can be significant.

What are Morelull's weaknesses in Pokemon GO?
Morelull is weak to Poison, Fire, Flying, Ice, Steel-type moves. It has a double weakness to Poison, taking 156% more damage from these types. When battling Morelull, prioritize using Poison-type attackers to exploit this double weakness for maximum effectiveness.

What is Morelull's max CP in Pokemon GO?
Morelull's maximum CP is 1,168 at level 50 (with XL Candy), or 1,033 at level 40. Reaching level 50 requires XL Candy, which is only available to trainers level 31 and above — earning XL Candy involves catching, hatching, transferring, and walking Pokemon. Morelull's CP is calculated from its base stats: 108 Attack, 119 Defense, and 120 Stamina. Powering up from level 40 to 50 requires a significant investment of XL Candy and Stardust, so plan your resources carefully.

If you catch a perfect IV Morelull, it is worth investing Stardust and Candy to power it up, especially if Morelull ranks well in raids or PvP.
