Excadrill
Excadrill is a Tier 3 raid boss in Pokémon GO. Being a Ground and Steel type, it is weak to Fighting, Fire, Ground, and Water types. Excadrill is a spice pick in all three PvP leagues and has a very interesting moveset, so you will probably want to raid it!
Excadrill can be caught with the following CP values:
- 1770 – 1853 CP at Level 20, no weather boost
- 2212 – 2317 CP at Level 25 with Sunny or Snow weather boost
