Questions people ask

Is Petilil good in Pokemon GO?
Not for battle. Petilil has no ranked PvP, raid or Max Battle role, so keep one for the Pokedex and transfer the rest.
Should I keep or transfer Petilil?
Petilil has no job in PvP, raids, or Max Battles. Keep one for the Pokedex, and transfer the rest for candy.
Is Petilil a good raid attacker?
Petilil ranks #317 of 344 grass attackers with 4.8 DPS. That is outside the top 15, so it is not a raid priority.
Can Petilil be shiny in Pokemon GO?
Yes. Shiny Petilil is available from photobomb, raid, research, wild. A shiny is worth keeping for the collection no matter its IVs.
