FAQ
What is the best moveset for Shadow Regigigas in Pokemon GO?
Shadow Regigigas's best moveset is Hidden Power with Crush Grip, worth 41.4 DPS as a Normal-type raid attacker. Crush Grip is a legacy move: a regular TM never rolls it, so it takes an Elite TM or the event that brings it back.
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 are Shadow Regigigas's weaknesses in Pokemon GO?
Shadow Regigigas takes super effective damage from Fighting. Ghost damage is double resisted (0.39×).
What is Shadow Regigigas's max CP in Pokemon GO?
Shadow Regigigas reaches 4,913 CP at level 50 and 4,346 CP at level 40, both with 15/15/15 IVs. That is the same CP as a regular Regigigas: the Shadow attack bonus applies in battle and never shows in the CP number.
What CP is a 100% IV Shadow Regigigas?
After a Team GO Rocket battle a 15/15/15 Shadow Regigigas shows 979 CP (level 8), or 1,614 CP when weather boosted (level 13). From a Shadow Raid it is 2,483 CP, or 3,104 weather boosted.
Is Shadow Regigigas better than regular Regigigas?
In raids, yes: Shadow Regigigas deals 41.4 DPS (#1 Normal) against 34.6 DPS (#2 Normal) for the regular form. It pays for that with 20% more damage taken, so it faints sooner. See Regigigas.
How do you get Shadow Regigigas in Pokemon GO?
Shadow Regigigas 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 20,000 Stardust and 20 Candy and turns it into a regular Regigigas with Return — the Shadow attack bonus is lost for good.
