Verdict
Situational
Shadow Exeggutor is a solid but not elite Grass-type attacker, sitting at Tier B (#19) in raid performance. With a max CP of 3,408 and base stats of 233/149/216, it can fill a role on your team if you lack stronger Grass-type counters. The best moveset is Bullet Seed paired with Solar Beam. Consider investing if you need a Grass-type attacker now, but hold off on XL Candy investment as better alternatives exist. A useful stepping stone rather than an endgame pick.
