    None, as they’re based on the MSG, in which Misdreavus used to not have an evolution

  2. little_runner_boy

    Slaking is the only one in my books. Ya it lasts forever but combined with how little damage it puts out… it’s a joke

  3. simsiuss

    Ursulana, had some much promise but that fast move is such a stinker

  4. ChalkDinosaurs

    Rhydon has always had an impressive cp to me. Has a lower base stat total than golem, but a much higher cp. Not even a full evolution, either

  5. thebiggestleaf

    CP is directly based off MSG stats so… none?

    The issue isn’t CP seeming high for a given Pokemon, it’s that the game tells you fuckall about the stats used to get to that value.

  6. Terrapogalt

    Tbf Misdreaves used to be a single stage mon

    I have noticed more pokemon that have unreasonably low CP for how strong they are. Not all of this can be blamed on strong moves. Obviously Greninja with Water Shuriken and Hydro Cannon does huge damage because the moves provide fast charging and high damage. But Blissey with fairly unremarkable moves such as Zen Headbutt and Psychic can beat Machamp’s with fighting type fast and charged moves that are 25% higher CP.

    Nihilego can go to a WAY higher cp than I ever expected, i’m pretty sure a hundo Nihilego can go to 4500 cp, I expected it to be a big damage small cp pokemon. Tbf it IS a “legendary” so its cp would be higher, i might just be dumb lmao

  9. TypicalCity

    Recently caught a wild hundo Espeon & pretty surprised it caps out at 3583. Probably 3600 with best buddy.

  10. MaK_1337

    More like unnecessary amount of XL candies

  11. Stahlios

    Yet this mf evolution goes to like 2600cp

    One of my fav Pokémon, I got a shadow hundo one, but it’s still bad

  12. Woodland-wanderer24

    Why did I only just learn that scythers max xp is like 2500

  13. The84thWolf

    Because Niantic won’t make as much money if it was easy

  14. Snakey_Boi

    Regigigas tbh (because it sucks in the main games)

  15. Just_a_Growlithe

    Slaking lol, I have him almost maxed yet I still need like 200 more candies to finish it lol

  16. Kinggakman

    Misdreavus originally had no evolution so it has stats closer to a fully evolved Pokémon.

  17. Zilla_Sohn

    Umbreon out of the other eeveelutions Umbreon only maxes out around 2,500 while the others max out around 3,500

  18. Vierailija_Maasta

    Schucle since i never get those xls

  19. Optimusjack89

    I don’t think none of them really have unreasonably high max CP. I do think that some of them have unreasonably low max CP though. Blastoise is one that comes to mind.

  20. Destroyer3921

    Misdreavus was once a stand alone Pokémon (no evolution) so for it to have lower stats would make it even worse

  21. AdmiralFurret

    Roselia and Cherrim. I get it that they were supposed to be strong but holy fuck they’re an apocalypse in early game, while cherrim Doesnt have any exolaination for it’s strenght

  22. Dusty_Flamingo_11

    Wow the shiny looks like Lisa Simpson

  23. III_sonofthefamine

    Misdreavus makes sense because it was a good Pokémon in gen 2-3 before it even got an evo in gen 4, due to it’s special attack, speed, good move pool and and typing. If this seems high, you probably don’t really know much about Pokémon (avg Pokémon go player)

  24. Far_Command5979

    Slaking. He sucks but he has the most CP of any of mine current

  25. Ninjachase13

    Excaddrill, 3111 CP and plenty of more room to grow.

  26. emaddy2109

    Ponyta maxes over 1900 cp. Back in gen 1 it had the highest base stat total of all un-evolved pokemon that can evolve.

  27. BrooklynParkDad

    Oh wow but not quite enough to make a splash in Ultra League.

  28. SitdownCupcake

    I have that exact shiny evolved.mine can go to 2616 cp

  29. theBarnDawg

    “BATHROOM” is a nice name. My goldeen is named “ENSUITE HALF BATH”

    3 things are going on here.

    1) base cp is attack * sqrt(defense×stamina)

    2) some moves are just much better than others to an obscene degree

    3) the higher version of msg attack is weighted SEVEN times more in pogo’s attack stat. So, if you have 150 attack and 10 special attack in msg, pogo averages it to like 132 base attack. Which is then adjusted by speed. +5% attack and defense for each 25 points of base speed above 75. So, fast pokemon with one really, really high attack stat get crazy strong.

    ATT = Mult × (7×Att1 + Att2)/4

    DEF = Mult × (5×Def1 + 3×Def2)/4

    STA = 1.75 HP + 50

    Mult = (Speed – 75)/500 + 1

    Where Att1 and Def1 are the higher of the Attacks and Defense values and Att2 and Def2 is the lower value.

    I have a better question: why name your Mister Dreavus *Bathroom*?

  32. Dicigious

    Itll be pokemon that used to be one stage and not evolve but then got evos in future gens, like misdreavus.

  33. m_daniel_8

    I’m more curious to know why the name bathroom? 😂

  34. More_Possession2871

    Komala has almost 3000 CP which is funny because he’s so small
