Questions people ask

Is Cherrim good in Pokemon GO?
Not for battle. Cherrim has no ranked PvP, raid or Max Battle role, so keep one for the Pokedex and transfer the rest.
Should I keep or transfer Cherrim?
Cherrim has no job in PvP, raids, or Max Battles. Keep one for the Pokedex and any of the special variants below, and transfer the rest for candy.
Is Cherrim a good raid attacker?
Cherrim ranks #188 of 344 grass attackers with 8.7 DPS. That is outside the top 15, so it is not a raid priority.
Can Cherrim be shiny in Pokemon GO?
Yes. Shiny Cherrim is available from evolution, photobomb, research, wild. A shiny is worth keeping for the collection no matter its IVs.
