Is Shadow Feraligatr good in Pokemon GO?

Low priority
Power upStardustCandyXL Candy
Lv 20 → 40 135,000 15

At Tier C (rank #23 as a Water-type attacker) there are better options for the same Stardust. Keep a good specimen, skip the power-up unless Shadow Feraligatr is a favourite.

  • Attack is its highest stat (205), so it hits harder than it survives — a glass-cannon raid slot rather than a gym defender.
  • A second charged move costs 10,000 Dust and 25 Candy, and with 4 charged moves to pick from it is the single biggest PvP upgrade you can buy.
  • Its moves get a damage boost in Rainy weather — worth timing raids around.
