FAQ
What is the best moveset for Shadow Exploud in Pokemon GO?
Shadow Exploud's best moveset is Bite with Boomburst. A TM rerolls at random among its 2 fast and 4 charged non-legacy moves.
It is caught knowing Frustration, which only comes off with a Charged TM during a Team GO Rocket Takeover event — do that before spending Stardust on it.

What is Shadow Exploud's max CP in Pokemon GO?
Shadow Exploud reaches 2,654 CP at level 50 and 2,347 CP at level 40, both with 15/15/15 IVs. That is the same CP as a regular Exploud: the Shadow attack bonus applies in battle and never shows in the CP number.
What CP is a 100% IV Shadow Exploud?
After a Team GO Rocket battle a 15/15/15 Shadow Exploud shows 529 CP (level 8), or 872 CP when weather boosted (level 13). From a Shadow Raid it is 1,341 CP, or 1,677 weather boosted.

Shadow Exploud is rescued after beating Team GO Rocket, or caught from a Shadow Raid — which Grunts, Leaders and raids carry it changes with every Rocket rotation. It cannot be traded or Mega Evolved. Purifying it costs 1,000 Stardust and 1 Candy and turns it into a regular Exploud with Return — the Shadow attack bonus is lost for good.
