Weezing (#110) is a Poison-type Pokémon from the Kanto region (Generation 1) in Pokémon GO. With a maximum CP of 2,623 at Level 50 with perfect 15/15/15 IVs, Weezing can be effective with the right strategy. This complete guide covers the best moveset, PvP analysis, raid counters, evolution, and shiny availability for Weezing in 2026.
Weezing's Attack stat is 174 (Good). A decent Attack stat that allows Weezing to contribute meaningful damage.
With 197 Defense (Excellent) and 163 Stamina (Good), the total stat product is 534. This gives Weezing reasonable durability in battle. Compared to other Poison-type Pokémon, Weezing's stat distribution is balanced.
The best moveset for Weezing depends on whether you use it for raids, gyms, or PvP. For raids, use Tackle (Fast) with Sludge Bomb (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. Weezing has 3 Fast Attacks and 4 Charged Attacks to choose from.
In Great League, Weezing 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 Poison typing provides useful matchups against Fighting, Poison, Bug-type threats while being weak to Ground, Psychic types.
In Ultra League, Weezing reaches 2,293 CP at Level 40. Its bulk allows it to survive key matchups.
In Master League, Weezing faces tough competition from Pokémon with higher CP caps. It is better suited for capped leagues.
As a raid attacker, Weezing's effectiveness depends on its typing and 174 Attack stat. It may not be the top raid choice but contributes in the right conditions. Best counters against Weezing use Ground, Psychic-type moves.
Weezing can be found in the wild, hatched from Eggs, obtained through Research tasks, and during events. In Cloudy weather, it receives a spawn boost. The buddy distance is 3km per candy — use Pinap Berries for double candy when catching.
Weezing 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.
Shadow Weezing is available from Team GO Rocket. Shadow Pokémon deal 20% more damage but take 20% more damage, making them excellent glass cannons. Shadow Weezing's effective Attack becomes ~209. For raids, keeping it Shadow is usually better than purifying.
Shiny Weezing is available! Use the Normal/Shiny toggle on this page to preview. The shiny rate is approximately 1 in 500. Shiny variants are cosmetic only — same stats and performance. Check our Shiny Checklist for all available shinies.
Weezing gets a weather boost in Cloudy weather, increasing wild spawn CP (up to Level 35) and raid catch CP to Level 25 (1,553 - 1,637 CP). The buddy distance is 3km per candy. Use Poffins to halve the distance.
