FAQ

What is the best moveset for Shadow Marshtomp in Pokemon GO?

Shadow Marshtomp's best moveset is Water Gun with Surf. A TM rerolls at random among its 2 fast and 3 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 Marshtomp's max CP in Pokemon GO?

Shadow Marshtomp reaches 2,008 CP at level 50 and 1,776 CP at level 40, both with 15/15/15 IVs. That is the same CP as a regular Marshtomp: the Shadow attack bonus applies in battle and never shows in the CP number.

What CP is a 100% IV Shadow Marshtomp?

After a Team GO Rocket battle a 15/15/15 Shadow Marshtomp shows 400 CP (level 8), or 660 CP when weather boosted (level 13). From a Shadow Raid it is 1,015 CP, or 1,269 weather boosted.

How do you get Shadow Marshtomp in Pokemon GO?

Shadow Marshtomp 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 3,000 Stardust and 3 Candy and turns it into a regular Marshtomp with Return — the Shadow attack bonus is lost for good.
