Questions people ask

Is Yanma good in Pokemon GO?
Not for battle. Yanma has no ranked PvP, raid or Max Battle role, so keep one for the Pokedex and transfer the rest.
Should I keep or transfer Yanma?
Yanma has no job in PvP, raids, or Max Battles. Keep one for the Pokedex, and transfer the rest for candy.
Is Yanma a good raid attacker?
Yanma ranks #183 of 238 flying attackers with 6.8 DPS. That is outside the top 15, so it is not a raid priority.
Can Yanma be shiny in Pokemon GO?
Yes. Shiny Yanma is available from photobomb, raid, research, wild. A shiny is worth keeping for the collection no matter its IVs.
