Trainer Tips

Simipour is a Water-type Pokemon with a stat total of 520. With its high Attack stat (206), Simipour is best suited for offensive roles in both raids and PvP.

Watch out for Electric, Grass-type moves when using Simipour. These types deal super effective damage that can cut into Simipour's performance.

Simipour's moves get a damage boost in Rainy weather. Take advantage of weather conditions to maximize your DPS in raids and gym battles.

Unlocking a second charged move costs 50,000 Stardust and 50 Candy. With 3 charged moves available, a second move gives Simipour much better coverage in PvP battles.

Verdict

Collector's Pick
Simipour is a Water-type Pokemon with base stats of 206/133/181 (Atk/Def/Sta) and a max CP of 2,657. While it doesn't currently rank among the top raid attackers or PvP contenders, every Pokemon has its place in a trainer's collection. Simipour may shine during specific events, in limited-format cups, or when new moves are added in future updates. For now, hold onto a good IV specimen but save your Stardust and Candy for more impactful investments unless you're a dedicated fan of this Pokemon.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the best moveset for Simipour in Pokemon GO?
Simipour has multiple viable movesets depending on the battle format. The ideal moveset varies based on whether you are using Simipour for raids, gym battles, or PvP — check the moves section above for a full breakdown of each move's DPS, energy cost, and coverage.
What are Simipour's weaknesses in Pokemon GO?
Simipour is weak to Electric, Grass-type moves. On the other hand, Simipour resists Fire, Ice, Steel, Water-type attacks, so avoid using those types against it. To counter Simipour effectively in raids and gyms, build a team using its weakest type matchups and pick attackers that have STAB moves of those types.
What is Simipour's max CP in Pokemon GO?
Simipour's maximum CP is 2,657 at level 50 (with XL Candy), or 2,350 at level 40. Reaching level 50 requires XL Candy, which is only available to trainers level 31 and above — earning XL Candy involves catching, hatching, transferring, and walking Pokemon. Simipour's CP is calculated from its base stats: 206 Attack, 133 Defense, and 181 Stamina. Powering up from level 40 to 50 requires a significant investment of XL Candy and Stardust, so plan your resources carefully. A 100% IV Simipour caught from raids or eggs (level 20) will have 1,343 CP, or 1,679 CP with weather boost (level 25).
What CP is a 100% IV Simipour?
A perfect 15/15/15 IV Simipour has the following CP at key levels: 1,007 CP at level 15 (research encounters), 1,343 CP at level 20 (raid and egg catches), 1,679 CP at level 25 (weather-boosted raids), and 2,657 CP at level 50 fully powered up. If you catch a perfect IV Simipour, it is worth investing Stardust and Candy to power it up, especially if Simipour ranks well in raids or PvP. A 100% IV (also called a "hundo") is the rarest IV combination, so tag and favorite it to make sure you don't accidentally transfer it.
How to get Simipour in Pokemon GO?
Simipour is obtained by evolving its pre-evolution (Panpour with 50 Candy + Unova Stone). Simipour can also be obtained through trading with other trainers.
Can Simipour be shiny in Pokemon GO?
Shiny Simipour's availability depends on whether Niantic has released its shiny form. Not all Pokemon have their shiny forms available yet. Check the current events page and Community Day announcements for any updates on shiny Simipour availability and boosted shiny rates during special events.
