Lumineon (#457) is a Water-type Pokémon from the Sinnoh region (Generation 4) in Pokémon GO. With a maximum CP of 2,075 at Level 50 with perfect 15/15/15 IVs, Lumineon can be effective with the right strategy. This complete guide covers the best moveset, PvP analysis, raid counters, evolution, and shiny availability for Lumineon in 2026.
Lumineon's Attack stat is 142 (Average). The lower Attack stat means Lumineon may compensate with bulk or utility.
With 170 Defense (Good) and 170 Stamina (Good), the total stat product is 482. This gives Lumineon reasonable durability in battle. Compared to other Water-type Pokémon, Lumineon's stat distribution is balanced.
The best moveset for Lumineon depends on whether you use it for raids, gyms, or PvP. For raids, use Waterfall (Fast) with Water Pulse (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. Lumineon has 2 Fast Attacks and 3 Charged Attacks to choose from.
In Great League, Lumineon 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 Water typing provides useful matchups against Fire, Water, Ice-type threats while being weak to Electric, Grass types.
In Master League, Lumineon faces tough competition from Pokémon with higher CP caps. It is better suited for capped leagues.
As a raid attacker, Lumineon's effectiveness depends on its typing and 142 Attack stat. It may not be the top raid choice but contributes in the right conditions. Best counters against Lumineon use Electric, Grass-type moves.
Lumineon can be found in the wild, hatched from Eggs, obtained through Research tasks, and during events. In Rainy weather, it receives a spawn boost. The buddy distance is 3km per candy — use Pinap Berries for double candy when catching.
Lumineon is part of a 2-stage evolution family:
Tip: For PvP, check IV spreads before evolving (low Attack, high Defense/Stamina). For raids, aim for 15/15/15 perfect IVs.
