Basics
Wimpod is a Bug/Water-type Pokémon. Its 100% IV CP is 286 at level 20 (raids, eggs and research), 358 at weather-boosted level 25 and up to 567 at level 50. It is weak to Electric/Flying/Rock attacks (1.6×). It resists Water/Ice/Fighting/Ground/Steel attacks. In raids, Struggle Bug + Bug Buzz is its strongest moveset (level 40, 100% IVs). It evolves into Golisopod with 400 Candy. As your buddy, it earns 1 Candy every 1 km you walk together.
