Cascoon in the meta

PvE Analysis

Cascoon is a pure Bug-type Pokémon with a max CP of 626. It is not useful for PvE, even with its best moveset of Bug Bite and Struggle.

⚔️ Raids

Cascoon actually maxes out at a lower CP than Wurmple, meaning you would be better off using Wurmple. Which is wild!

🛡️ Gyms

There are much better options available.

PvP Analysis

Cascoon’s best moveset for PvP is Bug Bite and Struggle, but sadly, it is not a particularly useful PvP Pokémon.

🧸 Little Cup

Cascoon only has access to the Charged Move Struggle, making it useless in any kind of battle.

🔵 Great League

At a tiny 626 CP, Cascoon is way too small for the Great League.

🟡 Ultra League

No.

🟣 Master League

No.

More information

Catch probability with multiple throws

In order to help Trainers understand their overall odds when catching Cascoon, we enable the functionality to showing the total chance to catch it depending on the number of available throws. We calculate this chance as if you repeated the same throw N-number of times.

To activate this functionality, change the number of Number of throws to a value greater than 1. The Number of throws option is available in the configuration options above the chart

Catch rate formula

Pokémon GO catch rate formula can be expressed as follows:

CATCH_MULTIPLIERS = ball * curve * berry * throwType * (type1Medal + type2Medal / 2)
CATCH_RATE = 1 - Math.pow(1 - baseCatchRate / (2 * cpm), CATCH_MULTIPLIERS)

There are different multipliers that come into play when calculating catch rate.

Curved throws are more effective than regular throws, stronger types of Poké Ball have a higher catch rate, and using a Razz Berry or a Golden Razz Berry also improves your chances.
