Sableye Raid Guide

Artwork of Sableye from Pokémon GO Sableye

Sableye is a Tier 3 raid boss in Pokémon GO with a raid boss CP of 4695. Sableye is one of the best Pokémon to use in the Great League, although its most optimal performance is its Purified form (with Return). Regardless, non-Return Sableye can still work in the GL meta.

  • Sableye raids can be used to farm normal candies and XL candies. An XL Sableye is very much playable in the Great League and is at its most meta-relevant level.
  • Sableye can be shiny. It has a gorgeous golden, emerald-laden shiny form!
  • Sableye has a Mega Evolution that can be used to boost both Dark and Ghost types in raids

Sableye can be caught with the following CP values:

  • 789 – 843 CP at Level 20, no weather boost
  • 986 – 1054 CP at Level 25 with Fog weather boost

With its dual Dark and Ghost typing, it is weak only to the Fairy typing, and that too, it’s a 2x weakness. The raid is soloable for the prepared trainer.
