      Once again, poor defenses harm its viability. 😕

      ⚔️ Raids – Nope, just don’t.

      🛡️ Gyms – Even fully evolved Rock-type Pokémon are underwhelming as Gym defenders, so Boldore is definitely out of the question.

      PvP AnalysisPvP Analysis

      Recommended moves

      With a measly ATK stat that hardly benefits from the Shadow boost and poor defenses, Shadow Boldore is just not worth using. ❌

These do not stack with each other. Additionally, High and Max Level Mega-Evolved Pokémon grant an increased chance to obtain Candy XL when catching a Pokémon that shares a type with it.

      Note on Primal Kyogre, Primal Groudon, and Mega Rayquaza
      • Primal Kyogre boosts Water-, Electric- and Bug-type attacks and Pokémon.
      • Primal Groudon boosts Fire-, Grass- and Ground-type attacks and Pokémon.
