Snorunt (#361) is a Ice-type Pokémon from the Hoenn region (Generation 3) in Pokémon GO. With a maximum CP of 1,016 at Level 50 with perfect 15/15/15 IVs, Snorunt has its niche uses in certain battle scenarios. This complete guide covers the best moveset, PvP analysis, raid counters, evolution, and shiny availability for Snorunt in 2026.
Snorunt's Attack stat is 95 (Below Average). The lower Attack stat means Snorunt may compensate with bulk or utility.
With 95 Defense (Below Average) and 137 Stamina (Average), the total stat product is 327. Trainers should be mindful of Snorunt's limited bulk. Compared to other Ice-type Pokémon, Snorunt's stat distribution is balanced.
The best moveset for Snorunt depends on whether you use it for raids, gyms, or PvP. For raids, use Powder Snow (Fast) with Avalanche (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. Snorunt has 2 Fast Attacks and 3 Charged Attacks to choose from.
In Great League, Snorunt 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 Ice typing provides useful matchups against Ice-type threats while being weak to Fire, Fighting, Rock types.
In Master League, Snorunt faces tough competition from Pokémon with higher CP caps. It is better suited for capped leagues.
As a raid attacker, Snorunt's effectiveness depends on its typing and 95 Attack stat. It may not be the top raid choice but contributes in the right conditions. Best counters against Snorunt use Fire, Fighting-type moves.
Snorunt can be found in the wild, hatched from Eggs, obtained through Research tasks, and during events. In Snow weather, it receives a spawn boost. The buddy distance is 3km per candy — use Pinap Berries for double candy when catching.
Snorunt is part of a 3-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.
