PvE Analysis

⚔️ Raids

Minccino is the first stage of a two-stage Pokémon and a Normal type. Suffice it to say, Minccino has no place as a raid attacker.

PvP Analysis

🧸 Little Cup

Minccino is a first-stage Pokémon with a max CP of 986. As such, Minccino has no place in any of the three main metas. As for the 500 CP Little Cup format, it isn’t a top performer by any means. It’s quite frail and doesn’t reach its charged attacks quickly. However, it does have Charm as a fast attack, which can deal a lot of damage. So, you could try it out during the few moments when Little Cup is available, and maybe it could end up being a valuable asset since it can win against meta picks like Deino and Vullaby.

Catch probability with multiple throws

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