Totodile (#158) is a Water-type Pokémon from the Johto region (Generation 2) in Pokémon GO. With a maximum CP of 1,294 at Level 50 with perfect 15/15/15 IVs, Totodile has its niche uses in certain battle scenarios. This complete guide covers the best moveset, PvP analysis, raid counters, evolution, and shiny availability for Totodile in 2026.
Totodile's Attack stat is 117 (Below Average). The lower Attack stat means Totodile may compensate with bulk or utility.
With 109 Defense (Average) and 137 Stamina (Average), the total stat product is 363. Trainers should be mindful of Totodile's limited bulk. Compared to other Water-type Pokémon, Totodile's stat distribution is balanced.
The best moveset for Totodile depends on whether you use it for raids, gyms, or PvP. For raids, use Water Gun (Fast) with Crunch (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. Totodile has 2 Fast Attacks and 3 Charged Attacks to choose from.
In Great League, Totodile 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, Totodile faces tough competition from Pokémon with higher CP caps. It is better suited for capped leagues.
As a raid attacker, Totodile's effectiveness depends on its typing and 117 Attack stat. It may not be the top raid choice but contributes in the right conditions. Best counters against Totodile use Electric, Grass-type moves.
Totodile 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.
Totodile 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.
Shadow Totodile is available from Team GO Rocket. Shadow Pokémon deal 20% more damage but take 20% more damage, making them excellent glass cannons. Shadow Totodile's effective Attack becomes ~140. For raids, keeping it Shadow is usually better than purifying.
