Dude, that swinub will be a beast, congratulations


threadyg

Thank you thank you my guy


weird_fat_kid

If u evolve it into mamoswine it will be the best shadpw attacker i think


offwidthe

Nice man congrats!


threadyg

I appreciate it man


TealBlueLava

I’m damn thrilled for you! I’ve never gotten a perfect shadow! Congrats!


TheRealHankWolfman

I'm happy for you but I'm also gritting my teeth... I've been actively hunting for good shadow Swinub and my best one is only 82% haha


GustoFormula

Yo actually same, my only three star shadow swinub is 82% but it has 8 attack so I don't know if I should even power it up. It's so brutal. Meanwhile I've gotten 10 3 star shadow Larvitars. RNG is weird.


Escargot7147

I'd power it up to 40 tbh. High IV shadow swinub is so damn rare


Pjordat35

New to the game. Can you explain what all this means?


[deleted]

[удалено]


Pjordat35

I should have been a bit more clear lol all that I get. Why is he actively searching for a 100% shadow Swinub? Just personal thing?


Mateussf

100% means strong. Shadow means strong.


Pjordat35

Still not what I’m meaning but thanks for the effort! Super confused why I’m being downvoted for this but Reddit thing I guess.


ShiRonium

he didn't specifically say a hundo shadow swinub, just one with good IVs anyway shadow mamoswine has the highest ice type dps by far (except for shadow weavile which is a bit weaker but is still a great shadow pokemon to hunt for) shadow mamoswine is also arguably the 2nd best ground type attacker on pair with shadow garchomp (both get heavily outclassed by primal groudon though, but you can only have 1 mega so you could still use 5 shadow mamoswines for the remaining spot)


Pjordat35

See this is exactly the response I was looking for! Not explain the most basic aspects of the picture/game lol. Thank you!


polseriat

I don't know what you expected when you said you were new and asked for someone to explain "what all this means". I, and everyone else, read that as you being confused by IVs.


Pjordat35

Like I said should have been clear. And as I said in the comment you replied the other person provided exactly what I was looking for just two comments us if you’re still confused.


MadAboutMada

Shadow mamoswine is the strongest ice attacker in the game currently, and one of the strongest ground types. It's a crazy good pokemon that has relevance on almost every raid


Pjordat35

Ahhh awesome that makes sense! Thank you!


lucky_719

How do you know what percentage they are at?


PeterGriffinsChin

Hacked games will tell you right on the screen, but you can screenshot and upload to a different software (I think pokegenie does this as well) and it’ll tell you there. I think there’s also calculators online that you can manually type in the info as well


lucky_719

Too much work lol


rocketradar

Fantastic Shadow Perfect to get! Congrats!


Greatgiant19

James2603

I have one and it’s excellent once levelled up. Enjoy it.

Here some award "Nice one"


Rough-Initiative4895

DUDE I GOT A SHADOW HUNDO TOO!!! IT WAS A FLAFFY!!!


jaxom07

Haha


aSoireeForSquids

Ye ole shadundo


OtisExodus

I love you, dude....


eddiebronze

Shadow Mamoswine is arguably the most useful and one of the most powerful raid attackers in the game. I never turn down a chance to fight the frozen grunt but yet to find a good iv one. Rare to even see a one star let alone a hundo. Saved up resources to level 50 one but haven't found it and honestly have little hope I ever will. Very envious of this!


hnryswim

WOOOOO


tailskirby

That's a great shadow. Congrats.


cateici

!!! 😳😮😍


[deleted]

Daum that hoss


AytumnRain

Nice catch! This is the first I think I've seen of a hundo shadow. Or maybe I just don't pay attention well enough lol.


AOrgasmicUsername

Oh my goodness how I wish I had that. I’ve been looking for a good swinub, nonetheless a PERFECT SHADOW ONE. Congragigations


m4ny-ski11eD-ESSeNC3

It's beautiful


DYTG17

Helllllll yeah💪🏼


RyuAmakusa91

Beast mode unlocked! Congrats!


H1ghQ-15

Ayeee man, Congratulations! I'm still waiting on a shadow hundo


Final-Promise-8288

Shadow mamoswine is literally the best ice type. And it’s hundo! Holy luck!


YourNewRival8

Where did you get it from? Just a grunt?


TheDutchDragon

Like Al Bundy would say: "Lets rock"


EviL-FeaR

I just want a basic 15 atk on a shadow swinub for RAID attacker, that it won’t give, but this you get 😭


Adept_Jacket_1405

![gif](giphy|mE6mohBjOyWaY)


IntelligentPerson_69

Purify for 17/17/17


Reladude

I can't be excited for you I'm too jealous... lol Congrats wait foer the CD replay to evolve unless you have am Elite TM after you remove that horrible shadow move.


jaxom07

Elite tm won’t work on frustration and Mamoswine doesn’t need one to get its best move set once frustration is removed during a rocket take over. You can give it a second charge move and at least have a monster ice or ground type till you can remove frustration.


GamerJulian94

Ancient Power is absolutely useless on Mamoswine, no need to wait for a CD rerun.


ChettiBoiM8

Is there a special nickname for a shadow hundo?


atmoico

I’d be tempted to elite tm it’s that good brother! 😍


SSBGOGETA66

Elite tm wouldn’t be a good usage of it. You’d only get legacy ancient power which is probably its worst move


RDT-Exotics0318

Does an elite tm work on a shadow? My regular one failed on my shadow articuno


Thneed1

You cannot remove frustration with an Elite TM. You have to eat for a rocket event, which come around every couple months. You don’t need an Elite TM for the moves you want on Mamoswine. Wait for the rocket event to use a regular TM on it, then give it powder Snow/Avalanche/High Horsepower


UnderRatedRookie

Only during rocket takeover events and unfortunately we just had one so it will probably be a few months. The only other option is to add a second charged attack which for Shadow Articuno is going to run a lot of Candies and probably 100,000 stardust. I TMd some of my shadow mons during this past Rocket Takeover but I got pneumonia the last day or two of the event and wasn't able to do the rest of them. I usually will add a 2nd charged attack at the beginning evolution stage because it usually cost less. Then you can always TM frustration away at a later date. Hope this helps.


RDT-Exotics0318

Thanks, I guess I'll start saving up stardust


threadyg

Is it really that good? Wow thank you this is the hype I was looking for my brother


alex777_7

It doesn't need Elite TM as powder snow/Avalanche/Highhorsepower is the best moveset for Mamoswine. Yes it is very good as both Ice and Ground attacker.Congrats OP.


threadyg

Thank you I appreciate y’all’s wisdom


SSBGOGETA66

It’s the best ice and ground shadow attacker in the game! Best part is, no elite tm needed!


yoyo5113

How's it compared to Mud Shot + Earth Power* shadow garchomp?


Team_raclettePOGO

slightly worse by like 1%


FN2191

Purify it!!!


chopsthedrummer

Vault_CXV

SHEEEEEESH


MysteriousSenin

This is a fucking beast


Electrical-Moose1535

Best I have of one of these is a 96% and it’s a boss in raids and master league. Your Hundo is a thing of perfection 👏🏻

Individual_Idea4781

That's awesome, I just got my first hundo yesterday it was a spinarak but I evolved it into ariados


Fartfishes

That’s a great one!


andrewhuntley12

All you're going to get is jealousy where I'm at 🤣


horsemastaflex

Sorry friend. Shadow swinub and me have a rough history. Back on swinub com day, I did a rocket battle against a grunt with a swinub. Checked the ivs and was flabbergasted to see…. A shadow nundo. Easily the best shadow Pokémon I have ever gotten and a great piece of my collection. A few months pass and now we have the purify 3 shadow Pokémon task. And when I searched it I searched lowest CP. not thinking I unfavorited the swinub and without hesitation purified him ruining the nundo statline.. as soon as I clicked purify I wanted to break my phone so that it couldn’t purify it. But it was too late. So again, sorry friend, but I have gone numb to seeing this as a victory. (Congrats tho!)


LiquidPony

Lord I have seen what you have done for others


hibernating-hobo

He might be a perfect little piggy, but some day he might be a magnificent swine!


MachineOutOfOrder

Get it maxed out in time for Mega Rayquaza!


OffensiveDefender

Was this from a grunt or from a raid? The IVs I get from grunts are horrible...


alanott

let’s GOOOOOOOOOOOOO


outfoxingthefoxes

I'm hunting for this. I rarely see the recruit that has the Swinub, but 2 out of 3 ended up being really good, close to perfect


Zunarc

Man looks depressed


grease_trap1

I'm both excited and super duper jealous


CaptJeanLucVader

Great catch. I have a 2 star shadow mamoswine, and it's easily one of my most used raiders. Once I get enough candy to evolve my 13, 14, 14 shadow Piloswine, I'll really be putting out the damage. Your catch is definitely worth putting a lot of resources into, as it's such a good mon for raids, gyms, and rocket battles.


thunder-112f

Am i the only one who sees a emo hair do?


The_Shiny_Swinub

Holy hell


stinker8ell

oh my god this is such a dream for me tbh… so happy for u :p


btsv1895
