FAQ
What is the best moveset for Shadow Raticate in Pokemon GO?
Shadow Raticate's best moveset is Bite with Hyper Beam. 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.

Shadow Raticate takes super effective damage from Fighting. Ghost damage is double resisted (0.39×).
What is Shadow Raticate's max CP in Pokemon GO?
Shadow Raticate reaches 1,956 CP at level 50 and 1,730 CP at level 40, both with 15/15/15 IVs. That is the same CP as a regular Raticate: the Shadow attack bonus applies in battle and never shows in the CP number.
What CP is a 100% IV Shadow Raticate?
After a Team GO Rocket battle a 15/15/15 Shadow Raticate shows 390 CP (level 8), or 643 CP when weather boosted (level 13). From a Shadow Raid it is 989 CP, or 1,236 weather boosted.
How do you get Shadow Raticate in Pokemon GO?
Shadow Raticate 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 Raticate with Return — the Shadow attack bonus is lost for good.
