PvE Analysis
Recommended moves
Shadow Frogadier holds no viability in the PvE scene due to its low stats (very expected from the middle of a three-stage evolution line).
PvP Analysis
Recommended moves
- Great League:
Bubble
Surf
Aerial Ace
🔵 Great League
Shadow Frogadier neither has the stats nor the moveset to shine in the Great League. Moreover, Water is one of the most dominant types in this format, and with so many better Water Pokémon for the choosing, Shadow Frogadier is on no one's mind.
With a max CP of only 1850, Shadow Frogadier is inadequate for the Ultra and Master League.
