Shadow Kadabra in the meta
PvE Analysis
Recommended moves
With a very workable ATK stat of 232, Shadow Kadabra looks like a neat glass cannon on paper, rivalling Necrozma's damage figures in Raid battles. Unfortunately, it needs a better moveset to be more viable, and even if that happens, this Pokémon is competing in meta ruled by Mewtwo and its variants, and the hard-hitting might of its own evolution, Alakazam. So just collect Candy and evolve it. Regarding Gym defense, none in the Alakazam family manage to be even decent Gym defenders because of their extreme fragility.
PvP Analysis
Recommended moves
- Great League:
Confusion
Shadow Ball
Dazzling Gleam
Shadow Kadabra is in a really awkward spot. Its high ATQ, low bulk, and slow moveset make it inadequate for the Great and Ultra League, and its stats don't compete at all with the powerhouses of the Master League. As such, this Pokémon is left high and dry in PvP (and PvE for that matter), making evolution its sole purpose. Don't waste your time running Shadow Kadabra in any PvP League.

Catch probability with multiple throws
In order to help Trainers understand their overall odds when catching Shadow Kadabra, 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.
