Snubbull has no raid or PvP ranking right now. Keep a high-IV one for the Pokedex and for future move updates or limited-format cups, and spend your Stardust elsewhere.

  • Bulk-leaning spread (85 Defense / 155 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 3 charged moves to pick from it is the single biggest PvP upgrade you can buy.
  • Shadow Snubbull deals 20% more damage and takes 20% more: better for raids, riskier in PvP.
  • Its moves get a damage boost in Cloudy weather — worth timing raids around.
