In Pokémom Go, not all Pokémon earn the same combat points with each upgrade: below we list all the Pokémon in order of power, so that you can decide who to allocate stardust and candy to.
These are best Pokémon ever in Pokémon Go and, not surprisingly, some of them are the rarest and most difficult to catch.
