      PvE AnalysisPvE Analysis

      The pure Fairy-type Fidough is the first new Pokémon to debut in 2025, but when it comes to PvE, it’s just a Dex filler. ✅

      ⚔️ Raids

      With low stats that translate to underwhelming damage output, Fidough can’t make any significant contribution, even against Dragon-type Bosses.

      🛡️ Gyms

      Fidough’s bulk is insufficient for even a decent performance at defending Gyms. 😕

      PvE AnalysisPvP Analysis

      🧸 Little Cup

      STAB Charm and Psychic Fangs work well against a meta with typically low bulk. Adding the fact that Fidough itself has high bulk (even more than its evolution), it is certainly a recipe for success. 🙂

      🔵 Great League

      With a meager 1114 Max CP, Fidough is weak in the Great League. Moreover, there is an excellent alternative in Wigglytuff, making Fidough an easy skip.

      🟡 Ultra League

      Just evolve it—you’ll get a Pokémon you can actually use in the Ultra League. Fidough isn’t remotely usable here. 👎

      🟣 Master League

      Fidough’s stats prevent it from any usage whatsoever in the Master League.

      Mega Pokémon that boost Fidough

      Photobomb

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

      Fairy Fairy

      Pokédex informationMore information

      Mega and Primal Raid BonusMega 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 BonusWhile 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 Fidough, 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.
