Questions people ask

Is Gumshoos good in Pokemon GO?
Not for battle. Gumshoos has no ranked PvP, raid or Max Battle role, so keep one for the Pokedex and transfer the rest.
Should I keep or transfer Gumshoos?
Gumshoos has no job in PvP, raids, or Max Battles. Keep one for the Pokedex, and transfer the rest for candy.
Is Gumshoos a good raid attacker?
Gumshoos ranks #124 of 354 normal attackers with 9.8 DPS. That is outside the top 15, so it is not a raid priority.
Can Gumshoos be shiny in Pokemon GO?
Yes. Shiny Gumshoos is available from evolution, photobomb, research, wild. A shiny is worth keeping for the collection no matter its IVs.
