In Pokémon GO there are 16 new Pokémon. But which Pokémon is really useful? We will go through the newcomers with you.
These are the Pokémon: Last Friday, May 17, 16 new Pokémon were introduced to the game. Among them were the two Evoli evolutions from the 4th generation and other strong Pokémon.
But are many Pokémon worth it? Which Pokémon should you run to as quickly as possible if it’s nearby? We will clarify this for you.
The 5 best Pokémon of the new wave
Place 5: Hippoterus: The evolution of Hippopotas is of Ground type. It also masters the powerful Ground attack Earth Power.
- Attack value: 201
- Defense value: 191
- HP value: 239
- Maximum CP: 3085 CP
The values of Hippoterus are all decent, but no value really stands out. As a Ground attacker, the Pokémon has too much competition and as a defender, it cannot stand up against Heiteira, Chaneira, and Relaxo. All in all, it is a solid Pokémon that does not stand out significantly.
Place 4: Folipurba: The Grass evolution of Evoli can only be developed through name trick or the new lures. It masters numerous strong Grass-type attacks.
- Attack value: 216
- Defense value: 219
- HP value: 163
- Maximum CP: 2944 CP
Folipurba has strong attacks, but not so good attack values. Therefore, the Grass Pokémon does not rank high among the best Grass attackers. However, anyone looking for a good alternative to Roserade or Gewaldro will find it in Folipurba.
Place 3: Magnezone: The evolution of Magneton can only be obtained through the new lures. The Pokémon is of Steel and Electric type.
- Attack value: 238
- Defense value: 205
- HP value: 172
- Maximum CP: 3205 CP
Magnezone is one of the best Electric attackers in the game. It competes with Raikou and Elevoltek in the top 3 ranks. It also masters the attack Thunder Shock, which is the best Electric attack in the game. So, it is worth leveling up a Magnezone.
Place 2: Glaziola: The Ice evolution of Evoli can also only be developed using the lures or the name trick. As an Ice attacker, Glaziola is quite useful.
- Attack value: 238
- Defense value: 205
- HP value: 163
- Maximum CP: 3126 CP
The values of Glaziola are good, but there is still Mamutel as an Ice attacker who casts everything in its shadow. However, in some situations, Glaziola comes close behind. So if someone doesn’t have a good Mamutel, they should definitely rely on Glaziola.
Place 1: Knakrack: The final evolution of Kaumalat is clearly the highlight of the new wave. The Dragon and Ground type Pokémon outshines all others.
- Attack value: 261
- Defense value: 193
- HP value: 239
- Maximum CP: 3962 CP
Knakrack is one of the best attackers of Dragon and Ground type. It is the best non-legendary Pokémon in the game and scores with a solid attack value. A good Knakrack is something every player should have on their team.
In addition to new Pokémon, there was also a new attack. We will tell you whether it is worth it:
