Questions people ask

Is Glalie good in Pokemon GO?
Not for battle. Glalie has no ranked PvP, raid or Max Battle role, so keep one for the Pokedex and transfer the rest.
Should I keep or transfer Glalie?
Glalie 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 Glalie a good raid attacker?
Glalie ranks #118 of 231 ice attackers with 9.1 DPS. That is outside the top 15, so it is not a raid priority.
Can Glalie be shiny in Pokemon GO?
Yes. Shiny Glalie is available from evolution, photobomb, raid, research, wild. A shiny is worth keeping for the collection no matter its IVs.
Is Shadow Glalie worth keeping?
Shadow Glalie hits 20% harder and takes 20% more damage. It has no ranked role of its own, so treat it like a normal copy.
