Skiddo (#672) is a Grass-type Pokémon from the Kalos region (Generation 6) in Pokémon GO. With a maximum CP of 1,430 at Level 50 with perfect 15/15/15 IVs, Skiddo has its niche uses in certain battle scenarios. This complete guide covers the best moveset, PvP analysis, raid counters, evolution, and shiny availability for Skiddo in 2026.
Skiddo's Attack stat is 123 (Average). The lower Attack stat means Skiddo may compensate with bulk or utility.
With 102 Defense (Average) and 165 Stamina (Good), the total stat product is 390. This gives Skiddo reasonable durability in battle. Compared to other Grass-type Pokémon, Skiddo's stat distribution is balanced.
The best moveset for Skiddo depends on whether you use it for raids, gyms, or PvP. For raids, use Zen Headbutt (Fast) with Brick Break (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. Skiddo has 2 Fast Attacks and 2 Charged Attacks to choose from.
In Great League, Skiddo 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 Grass typing provides useful matchups against Water, Electric, Grass-type threats while being weak to Fire, Ice, Poison types.
In Master League, Skiddo faces tough competition from Pokémon with higher CP caps. It is better suited for capped leagues.
As a raid attacker, Skiddo's effectiveness depends on its typing and 123 Attack stat. It may not be the top raid choice but contributes in the right conditions. Best counters against Skiddo use Fire, Ice-type moves.
Skiddo can be found in the wild, hatched from Eggs, obtained through Research tasks, and during events. In Sunny/Clear weather, it receives a spawn boost. The buddy distance is 3km per candy — use Pinap Berries for double candy when catching.
