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 1,523 1,895
15 / 15 / 15 100% 1,600 1,991
Raid catches have an IV floor of 10/10/10, so the two rows are the real minimum and maximum. If you see 1,600 CP it is a perfect Wyrdeer — throw a Golden Razz Berry.

What weather boosts Wyrdeer?

Partly Cloudy, Windy. Boss moves of the boosted types hit 20% harder (so do yours), and the catch is level 25 instead of 20: 1,895–1,991 CP instead of 1,523–1,600. The 10/10/10 IV floor is the same either way.

Is Wyrdeer worth raiding?

Wyrdeer 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.
