FAQ
What is the best moveset for Numel in Pokemon GO?
Numel's best moveset is Ember (fast) with Stomp (charged). Use a Fast TM or Charged TM to reroll onto it.
What are Numel's weaknesses in Pokemon GO?
Numel takes super effective damage from Water, Ground-type moves. It is double weak to Water (2.56× damage), so those attackers cut through it fastest. It resists Electric, Bug, Fairy, Fire, Poison, Steel, so avoid those types against it.
What is Numel's max CP in Pokemon GO?
Numel reaches 1,196 CP at level 50 with XL Candy, or 1,057 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 Numel?
A perfect 15/15/15 Numel shows 604 CP at level 20 (raid and egg catches) and 755 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 Numel better than regular Numel?
Shadow Numel 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 Numel in Pokemon GO?
Numel spawns in the wild, though how often depends on your biome and the active event. It can be traded between trainers.
Can Numel be shiny in Pokemon GO?
Shiny Numel 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.
