Is Shadow Ursaluna good in Pokemon GO?

Situational
Power upStardustCandyXL Candy
Lv 20 → 40 135,000 15

Tier B at rank #10 makes Shadow Ursaluna a useful Ground-type filler rather than an endgame pick. Build one if your Ground bench is thin, but keep the XL Candy for something stronger.

  • Bulk-leaning spread (181 Defense / 277 Stamina) — it stays on the field longer, which suits shielded PvP formats.
  • A second charged move costs 50,000 Dust and 50 Candy, and with 8 charged moves to pick from it is the single biggest PvP upgrade you can buy.
  • Its moves get a damage boost in Sunny and Partly Cloudy weather — worth timing raids around.
