Shadow Quagsire's Tier Ranking & Meta Analysis

Shadow Quagsire PvE Analysis

Recommended moves

⚔️ Raids

Shadow Quagsire should not be used in raids.

🛡️ Gyms

Shadow Quagsire is a D-Tier defender, so it’s only suitable for shiny flex.

Shadow Quagsire PvP Analysis

Recommended moves

Shadow Quagsire’s preferred moveset is Mud Shot, Aqua Tail*, and Stone Edge.

🔵 Great League

Shadow Quagsire is much stronger than its non-shadow variant, and is arguably the required form to use. Its fast pacing and extra shadow boost power allow it to either demand shields with Aqua Tail or pose a serious threat with a Stone Edge nuke. It remains an excellent Great League pick and one that you should definitely consider building for your PvP roster.

🟡 Ultra League

Shadow Quagsire only reaches 2269 CP at Level 50; however, it is an incredibly cool spice pick if you’re willing to make such an investment! Its moveset is quite decent, but its lack of stat product holds it back from being truly viable in this format.

🟣 Master League

Don’t use Shadow Quagsire in the Master League unless you’re looking for fun and quick losses!
