Catch CP after the raid

The CP you will see on the encounter screen.

IVs Lv 20 CP Lv 25 CP (weather)
10 / 10 / 10 floor 515 641
15 / 15 / 15 100% 560 696
Raid catches have an IV floor of 10/10/10, so the two rows are the real minimum and maximum. If you see 560 CP it is a perfect Klink — throw a Golden Razz Berry.

What is Klink weak to?

Klink takes super effective damage from Fighting, Fire, Ground-type moves.

How many trainers do I need to beat Klink?

What weather boosts Klink?

Snow. Boss moves of the boosted types hit 20% harder (so do yours), and the catch is level 25 instead of 20: 641–696 CP instead of 515–560. The 10/10/10 IV floor is the same either way.

Is Klink worth raiding?

Klink has no raid-attacker or GO Battle League ranking on this site, so the reasons to raid it are the dex entry, the candy and the shiny rather than your battle teams.
