PvE Analysis

Recommended moves

Fairy Attacker:Tackle Draining Kiss

Swirlix is not only a stat wise weak Pokémon, it doesn't even learn a Fairy type Fast Move to be even considered usable in Raids and Gyms.

PvP Analysis

Recommended moves

Great League:Tackle Energy Ball Draining Kiss

🧸 Little Cup

No Fairy-type Fast Move and a poor Charged Move in Draining Kiss leave Swirlix desperate for wins despite having workable stats. Besides, there's no reason to use Swirlix over stronger Fairies like Iglybuff.

Naturally, this Pokémon doesn't work in any of the main PvP Leagues.

Catch probability with multiple throws

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