The WP values in Pokémon GO are an indicator of the strength of individual Pokémon. These are the top 15!
The first clue to check how strong a Pokémon is, is the WP value (or in English: CP value). The higher this value, the stronger the Pokémon. Each monster has its own maximum WP value, which cannot be exceeded even with power-ups. From these values, we have compiled a “Top 15” list that ranks the Pokémon with the highest maximum WP values.
Update: You can find the 15 strongest Pokémon of the 2nd generation here
The Pokémon with the highest Max CP in Pokémon GO
What the WP values in Pokémon GO mean, we have already explained to you: It is a summary of various hidden values. In most cases, a higher WP value in Pokémon GO means that the Pokémon is stronger. Additionally, there are base values for attack, defense, and stamina, which can make a difference among the same Pokémon with the same CP value.
In this updated “Top 15 list”, you can see the Pokémon sorted by their WP values:
- Mewtwo – Max WP: 4760
- Dragonite – Max WP: 3581
- Snorlax – Max WP: 3355
- Zapdos – Max WP: 3330
- Rhydon – Max WP: 3300
- Gyarados – Max WP: 3281
- Articuno – Max WP: 3272
- Vaporeon – Max WP: 3157
- Mew – Max WP: 3090
- Lapras – Max WP: 2980

- Golem – Max WP: 2916
- Exeggutor – Max WP: 2916
- Flareon – Max WP: 2904
- Machamp – Max WP: 2889
Keep in mind that other factors in battle are also important, such as the various attacks that a Pokémon can learn, which can influence the outcome of a battle. For this, we have already listed the strongest attacks of individual Pokémon in Pokémon GO.
Some of these Pokémon cannot currently be caught in the game. Mewtwo has reportedly been sighted in Japan, causing a crowd to gather, but Mew and the 3 legendary birds Articuno, Zapdos, and Moltres cannot currently be caught in Pokémon GO.
By the way: The Pokémon with the lowest maximum WP value is neither Pidgey nor Caterpie – The bottom of this table is Magikarp with a maximum WP value of 220.
The values we used for this list come from Pokemongo.gamepress.gg.
