Dhelmise (#781) is a Ghost/Grass-type Pokémon from the Alola region (Generation 7) in Pokémon GO. With a maximum CP of 3,375 at Level 50 with perfect 15/15/15 IVs, Dhelmise is a strong competitor in various formats. This complete guide covers the best moveset, PvP analysis, raid counters, evolution, and shiny availability for Dhelmise in 2026.
Dhelmise's Attack stat is 233 (Excellent). This is a competitive Attack stat that makes Dhelmise a strong damage dealer.
With 179 Defense (Good) and 172 Stamina (Good), the total stat product is 584. This gives Dhelmise reasonable durability in battle. Compared to other Ghost-type Pokémon, Dhelmise's stat distribution leans toward offense.
The best moveset for Dhelmise depends on whether you use it for raids, gyms, or PvP. For raids, use Astonish (Fast) with Power Whip (Charged) for maximum DPS. This takes advantage of STAB (Same Type Attack Bonus) which provides a 20% damage boost for matching-type moves.
For PvP (GO Battle League), energy generation and coverage matter more than raw DPS. Dhelmise has 3 Fast Attacks and 4 Charged Attacks to choose from.
In Great League, Dhelmise can be a viable pick. For Great League, lower Attack IVs (like 0/15/15) are preferred to maximize stat product under 1500 CP. The Ghost/Grass typing provides useful matchups against Normal, Fighting, Water-type threats while being weak to Ghost, Dark, Fire types.
In Master League, Dhelmise faces tough competition from Pokémon with higher CP caps. It is better suited for capped leagues.
Dhelmise appears as a high-tier Raid Boss. Focus on Ghost, Dark, Fire-type counters for maximum damage. With strong counters, 2-3 trainers can defeat it.
