Ghost-type Attacker

Ghost Attacker:Hex Shadow Ball *

⚔️ Raids

Shadow Dusknoir is a Ghost-type Shadow Pokémon and the final form of the three-stage Duskull line. Dusknoir is a primarily defensive Pokémon, but in raids you want offensive Pokémon that can deal a lot of damage in a short amount of time. Nevertheless, while Shadow Dusknoir is by no means a good raid attacker, it’s not completely unusable either. So you could put it in your team if you’re lacking in viable Ghost-type options.

As a Ghost-type raid attacker, Shadow Dusknoir is strong against other Ghosts and Psychic-type Pokémon, it also double resists Normal and Fighting-type attacks and single-resists Poison and Bug-type attacks.

🔵 Great League

Dusknoir has an interesting place in the Great League. In terms of pure stat product, its pre-evolution Duskull actually ranks higher than it and has quite spammy charged attacks as well. But a case can be made to use Dusknoir instead, and especially Shadow Dusknoir. In exchange for a lower defense than Dusclops, Dusknoir can do more damage with its stats and selection of attacks. As such, despite the fact that Duskull might perform better in terms of sheer number of wins and performance, Shadow Dusknoir does have some notable wins against meta Pokémon that Dusclops can’t win against, such as Galarian Corsola. As such, Dusknoir might be actually worth building for the Great League depending on your team composition and needs.

🟡 Ultra League

With no Dusclops to contend with, Shadow Dusknoir might be the premier choice for the position of desirable Ghost-type in the Ultra League. It reaches far higher stats, can dish out solid fast attack pressure and can even spam charged attacks pretty reliably too. Overall, a fantastic pick for the Ultra League.

🟣 Master League

At 2700 max CP, Dusclops is far too weak for the legendary-dominated Master League.

Catch probability with multiple throws

In order to help Trainers understand their overall odds when catching Shadow Dusknoir, 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.
