Dedenne in the meta

PvE Analysis

Dedenne is the Pikachu clone of Gen 6, and just like all members of this adorable category, it lacks viability in PvE. ⚡

⚔️ Raids

It's literally a tiny electric mouse. Not to be included in Raids as it doesn't have reasonable damage output. 👎

🛡️ Gyms

It can hardly take any hits, so don't put it in Gyms haha. 😅

PvP Analysis

🔵 Great League

Dedenne may have balanced stats, and its Electric/Fairy typing might look good theoretically, but the reality is very different. 🥲

As an Electric type, Bug/Electric Pokémon like Charjabug and Galvantula perform much better, especially since they aren't weak to Ground-type attacks. 🪲⚡

Moreover, those Pokémon have versatile moves to make an impact, while Dedenne is left with the expensive Play Rough, a Fairy-type move that it often struggles to use due to its average bulk. Ultimately, Dedenne is a very unreliable Pokémon to run. 📉

🟡 Ultra League

A level 50 Dedenne hits only 2081 CP, vastly limiting any potential in the Ultra League. 😭

🟣 Master League

Dedenne is best left to ‘fairy’tales (no pun intended), not the evil halls of the Master League. 😈

Mega Pokémon that boost Dedenne

A list of Mega Pokémon that boost Dedenne's Electric and Fairy-type moves, Candy, and Candy XL from catching Dedenne.

More information

Mega and Primal Raid Bonus –Mega Pokémon boost the attack power of all other Pokémon when battling in Raid Battles by 10%. Attacks that share their type with the Mega Pokémon's type(s) receive a 30% boost. However, these bonuses do not stack if there are multiple Mega-Evolved Pokémon battling simultaneously; only the higher boost will be applied.

Mega and Primal Catch Bonus –While a Pokémon is Mega-Evolved, additional XP and Candy is granted when catching a Pokémon that shares a type with it, or for any raid boss caught. 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.
Mega Rayquaza boosts Flying-, Dragon- and Psychic-type attacks and Pokémon.

Catch probability with multiple throws

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