Questions people ask

Is Vanilluxe good in Pokemon GO?
Not for battle. Vanilluxe has no ranked PvP, raid or Max Battle role, so keep one for the Pokedex and transfer the rest.
Should I keep or transfer Vanilluxe?
Vanilluxe has no job in PvP, raids, or Max Battles. Keep one for the Pokedex, and transfer the rest for candy.
Is Vanilluxe a good raid attacker?
Vanilluxe ranks #46 of 231 ice attackers with 11.8 DPS. That is outside the top 15, so it is not a raid priority.
Can Vanilluxe be shiny in Pokemon GO?
Yes. Shiny Vanilluxe is available from evolution, photobomb, research, wild. A shiny is worth keeping for the collection no matter its IVs.
