Moveset analysis

In Ultra League it runs Thunder Shock and Close Combat. PvP movesets favour energy generation and shield pressure over raw damage, which is why they often differ from the raid set.

The highest-damage fast move is Low Kick (10 DPS); Charge Beam builds energy fastest (14 EPS). Brick Break is an Elite TM move and cannot be taught with a regular Charged TM.

Pawmot does not rank as a raid attacker, but it holds a Tier A spot at #48 in Ultra League. Build it to the league's CP cap rather than to a level, and unlock the second charged move before you invest further.

  • Attack is its highest stat (232), so it hits harder than it survives — a glass-cannon raid slot rather than a gym defender.
  • A second charged move costs 75,000 Dust and 75 Candy, and with 6 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.

What are Pawmot's weaknesses in Pokemon GO?

Pawmot takes super effective damage from Fairy, Ground, Psychic-type moves. It resists Bug, Dark, Electric, Rock, Steel, so avoid those types against it.

What is Pawmot's max CP in Pokemon GO?

Pawmot reaches 2,978 CP at level 50 with XL Candy, or 2,634 CP at level 40. Level 50 needs XL Candy, which only unlocks at Trainer Level 31 and comes from catching, hatching, transferring and walking.

Is Pawmot good for PvP in Pokemon GO?

Pawmot is ranked #48 (Tier A) in Ultra League with a 59.42% win rate.

In CP-capped leagues a lower Attack IV lets you reach a higher level under the cap, so the ideal spread for Ultra League is 0/15/15 rather than a hundo.

Unlocking the second charged move is the highest-value upgrade: it lets Pawmot bait shields instead of committing to one attack.

What CP is a 100% IV Pawmot?

A perfect 15/15/15 Pawmot shows 1,505 CP at level 20 (raid and egg catches) and 1,882 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.
