If you want a complete table showing how much stardust and candy will be needed per power up, check out the table below. As your Pokemon reaches higher CP levels, the candies needed to power up will also slowly increase, though not quite as often as stardust increases. Once the needed stardust reaches 5,000, the increase in CP and HP will decrease, making power ups not as significant. Evolution and power-ups will raise a Pokemons CP, health, and other hidden stats used in battle.
Pokemon go powerup plus#
Each power up increases the power up level by 0.5, up to the player’s Trainer level plus two.Īfter every fourth power up you do on a specific Pokemon, the needed stardust will increase. The other is to power up the Pokemon, which based on stats behind-the-scenes will boost a Pokemon. This hidden number is determined depending on the stats of your Pokemon you see when you appraise it, and the catch rate of that species. Once you reach trainer level 35, the CP limit will be removed and Pokemon can be powered up as much as you want, provided you have the stardust and candy needed.Įvery Pokemon you have will have its own power up level that will determine the amount of CP gained per power up. Your Pokemon will have a limit to its CP, depending on what Pokemon it is and how far in the evolution chain it is. Powering up is essentially the equivalent to leveling up a Pokemon in the mainline games, and will raise the CP of the selected monster while also give it a slight health increase. Both can be acquired via catching Pokemon, completing research tasks, and other activities in the game. (Note: A Pokmon’s level cannot be directly seen in-app, but it can be approximated by the power-up Stardust cost. Leveling up allows you to power it up twice more (gain 1 more level). A Pokmon can be powered up to its Trainer’s level +3. If you have enough specific candies and stardust for your Pokemon, you can select power up in the Pokemon’s menu. One power-up increases your Pokmon’s level by one half.
