Impidimp (#859) is a Dark/Fairy-type Pokémon from the Galar region (Generation 8) in Pokémon GO. With a maximum CP of 924 at Level 50 with perfect 15/15/15 IVs, Impidimp has its niche uses in certain battle scenarios. This complete guide covers the best moveset, PvP analysis, raid counters, evolution, and shiny availability for Impidimp in 2026.
Impidimp's Attack stat is 103 (Below Average). The lower Attack stat means Impidimp may compensate with bulk or utility.
With 69 Defense (Below Average) and 128 Stamina (Average), the total stat product is 300. Trainers should be mindful of Impidimp's limited bulk. Compared to other Dark-type Pokémon, Impidimp's stat distribution leans toward offense.
The best moveset for Impidimp depends on whether you use it for raids, gyms, or PvP. For raids, use Bite (Fast) with Foul Play (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. Impidimp has 2 Fast Attacks and 3 Charged Attacks to choose from.
In Great League, Impidimp 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 Dark/Fairy typing provides useful matchups against Dark, Psychic, Dragon-type threats while being weak to Fairy, Poison, Steel types.
In Master League, Impidimp faces tough competition from Pokémon with higher CP caps. It is better suited for capped leagues.
As a raid attacker, Impidimp's effectiveness depends on its typing and 103 Attack stat. It may not be the top raid choice but contributes in the right conditions. Best counters against Impidimp use Fairy, Poison-type moves.
Impidimp can be found in the wild, hatched from Eggs, obtained through Research tasks, and during events. In Foggy weather, it receives a spawn boost. The buddy distance is 5km per candy — use Pinap Berries for double candy when catching.
