Questions people ask

Is Stakataka good in Pokemon GO?
Not for battle. Stakataka has no ranked PvP, raid or Max Battle role, so keep one for the Pokedex and transfer the rest.
Should I keep or transfer Stakataka?
Ultra Beast Pokemon are hard to get back once they leave rotation. Keep hundos, shinies, and one for the collection; transfer the weak duplicates.
Is Stakataka a good raid attacker?
Stakataka ranks #67 of 294 rock attackers with 10.9 DPS. That is outside the top 15, so it is not a raid priority.
Can Stakataka be shiny in Pokemon GO?
Yes. Shiny Stakataka is available from photobomb, research, wild. A shiny is worth keeping for the collection no matter its IVs.
