Chimecho
Chimecho is a Tier 3 raid boss in Pokémon GO, and it can be shiny! With an eventual Mega Evolution release on the horizon, this is an exciting catch for all trainers.
It can be caught with the following CP values:
- 1224 – 1291 CP at Level 20, no weather boost
- 1530 – 1614 CP at Level 25 with Windy weather boost
With a mono Psychic typing, it is weak to the Bug, Dark, and Ghost types. Chimecho can be soloed, but lower level trainers, or those who without ideal counters, may want to bring a friend.
