Wigglytuff Raid Counters Guide

Wigglytuff

Wigglytuff is a Tier 3 raid boss in Pokémon GO and is a part of the Verdant Wonders event, running from March 21st, 10AM – March 25th, 8 PM, 8PM (local time). 

Wigglytuff is a Charmer with STAB and hence, a scary prospect to deal with. It is a pretty good mon to use in both the Great League and the Ultra League. However, it’s quite tanky and with the added perk of having Charm in its fast move arsenal, this cute balloon is definitely a threat in the lower PvP leagues.

Being a dual Normal/Fairy type, Wiggly is weak to the Poison and Steel types.

Wigglytuff can be caught with the following CP values:

    • 1034 – 1101 CP at Level 20, no weather boost
    • 1293 – 1376 CP at Level 25 with Cloudy or Partly Cloudy weather boost
