How counters are ranked

Every released Pokemon is simulated at level 40 against Shadow Snorlax using the in-game damage formula and the current Game Master move data. Each fast + charged combination is tested; only the best moveset per Pokemon is listed.

DPS is damage per second over a full attack cycle. TDO is the total damage dealt before fainting, so it rewards bulk. Shadow forms are ranked with their 20% Attack boost and 17% Defense penalty; Mega and Primal forms use their boosted base stats.

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	1,804	2,245
15 / 15 / 15 100%	1,889	2,350

Raid catches have an IV floor of 10/10/10, so the two rows are the real minimum and maximum. If you see 1,889 CP it is a perfect Shadow Snorlax — throw a Golden Razz Berry.

FAQ

What is Shadow Snorlax weak to?

Shadow Snorlax takes super effective damage from Fighting-type moves.

Can Shadow Snorlax be shiny?

Yes — the encounter after this raid can be shiny.

What weather boosts Shadow Snorlax?

Partly Cloudy. Boss moves of the boosted types hit 20% harder (so do yours), and the catch is level 25 instead of 20: 2,245–2,350 CP instead of 1,804–1,889. The 10/10/10 IV floor is the same either way.

Is Shadow Snorlax worth raiding?

Shadow Snorlax 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.
