FAQ
What is the best moveset for Shadow Vigoroth in Pokemon GO?
Shadow Vigoroth's best moveset is Counter with Rock Slide. A TM rerolls at random among its 2 fast and 4 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 Vigoroth reaches 2,225 CP at level 50 and 1,968 CP at level 40, both with 15/15/15 IVs. That is the same CP as a regular Vigoroth: the Shadow attack bonus applies in battle and never shows in the CP number.

After a Team GO Rocket battle a 15/15/15 Shadow Vigoroth shows 443 CP (level 8), or 731 CP when weather boosted (level 13). From a Shadow Raid it is 1,124 CP, or 1,405 weather boosted.

Shadow Vigoroth 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.
