Cyndaquil Gen 4 Learnset (2024)

FAQs

When should I let Cyndaquil evolve? ›

Evolve at 31, Cyndaquil has no trouble up until that point and can hold it's own past that and it learns Lava Plume nice and early that way. The only pokemon I know of that I wouldn't evolve as soon as possible is Growlithe. It learns some VERY good moves at a late level.

Best moveset for Cyndaquil

The best moves for Cyndaquil are Ember and Flamethrower when attacking Pokémon in Gyms. This move combination has the highest total DPS and is also the best moveset for PVP battles.

Cyndaquil evolves into Quilava, who evolves into Typhlosion.

To evolve Cyndaquil, trainers will need to raise it up to level 17, it will then evolve into its second form, Quilava. Fortunately, this can be done within the first few hours of the game.

Typhlosion is a Fire-type Pokémon. It evolves from Quilava starting at level 36. It is the final form of Cyndaquil. It can Mega Evolve into Mega Typhlosion using the Typhlosionite.

Modest is a nature that fits Cyndaquil perfectly because it raises its Special Attack stat while lowering its Attack stat. A vast majority of Cyndaquil and its evolutions' Fire-type attacks are Special, and as such, Cyndaquil will benefit the most from having a Modest nature.

Stats, Evolutions.

Cyndaquil has decent stats for a first-stager, but you'd think they'd be higher. Unlike Johto, where it is your starter, you get it when you beat your first trial, so it's good, but not great. You have stronger pokémon already. Its evolution level may change your mind.

155: Cyndaquil

It's cute in a way more unique to Cyndaquil, with its squinty/closed eyes and a little snoot. Such a round and cute demeanor are contrasted nicely with the violently spiky flames on its back. It's like one of those animals that flare up to look bigger, but with fire.

Is Typhlosion the best starter? ›

Hisuian Typhlosion may be the first Fire/Ghost starter, but it isn't the best. That honor goes to Skeledirge, the final stage of everyone's favorite absent-minded crocodile-chili pepper, Fuecoco.

The best Pokemon Go Cyndaquil counters are Shadow Excadrill, Shadow Rhyperior, Mega Diancie, Shadow Rampardos, Shadow Kyogre & Primal Kyogre.

All in all, Mega Typhlosion is a decent sweeper/wall-breaker that thrives under sun, but has a lot of weaknesses and needs a lot of support to clean up teams with Hubris.

Shiny Cyndaquil Was A Pretty Purple Pokémon

The Cyndaquil's current shiny form swaps out its normal blue and tan coloring for a dark brown and light brown and keeps the basic red and yellow flames.

Cyndaquil (Japanese: ヒノアラシ Hinoarashi) is a Fire-type Pokémon.

While the decision is up to each person, it's generally recommended that Pokemon should only be evolved if GO trainers are trying to fill out the Pokedex, if they want a specific evolution, or if they have Candy to spare. Pokemon generally receive a boost in their Combat Power (CP) once they've evolved.

Once it has max Happiness, it will evolve the next time you level up. So if you catch a low-level Zubat, once it evolves to Golbat, it could, in theory, evolve at the next level-up. (Zubat->Golbat is 22, if I remember correctly. So it could evolve into Crobat at 23 if you raise it from a low-level Zubat.

It learns its last, and most powerful technique at level 42, so it's a good idea to wait with evolving it into Wartortle until the last possible moment.
