Shadow Camerupt does not rank as a raid attacker, but it holds a Tier A spot at #27 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 (194), so it hits harder than it survives — a glass-cannon raid slot rather than a gym defender.
- A second charged move costs 50,000 Dust and 50 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 Sunny weather — worth timing raids around.

A perfect 15/15/15 Shadow Camerupt shows 1,253 CP at level 20 (raid and egg catches) and 1,566 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.
