      PvE AnalysisPvE Analysis

      ⚔️ Raids Shadow Noibat is a cute little Flying, Dragon-type bat in shadow form. As it is only the first stage of an evolutionary line with a measly CP of 754, you probably shouldn’t be sending the poor little fella to fight those big raid Pokémon.

      PvP AnalysisPvP Analysis

      Unfortunately, our cute little flying mouse does no better in PvP. With its low CP, it was obviously not going to be a viable Pokémon for the three main leagues. It does not do well in the 500 CP Little Cup format either, regardless of the shadow bonus or choice of moveset. While it can get some impressive wins, Noibat, shadow or otherwise also loses hard to a lot of meta favorites. So it’s just not worth it in any PvP formats.
