A pokemon's CP reduces after being caught?
The only guess I have for this is my level...
When I discovered my first Beedrill, it was CP 172, and it broke out of 4-5 pokeballs before capture. After registering in Pokedex, then added to my collection, it was CP 56, a loss of 116 CP points.
This is the only time I've noticed a CP # different to what it was when entered into my collection.

The CP (and IVs for that matter) do not change from the time you encounter a Pokemon to the time that you capture it.
I have not personally encountered this, but I suspect it is a bug.

Can a Pokemon lose CP?
As previously mentioned, Trapinch when it evolves into Vibrava does lose some CP, mainly due to its severe drop in Defense. My bad. Yes, that is true.Why do some Pokemon CP go down when evolved?
The primary factors behind a Pok\xe9mon's decline are its stats and moves. While most Pok\xe9mon receive universally higher stats during evolution, only some of the six stats increase for certain Pok\xe9mon while the remaining stats decrease.Can CP go down after evolution?
But, evolving does not change the level of the Pokemon. It changes the stats, including CP, of the Pokemon. But since powering up is based on level, the costs to power up do not change.What affects CP Pokemon go?
A Pokemon's combat power (CP) is an aggregated statistic that gives a rough idea as to how powerful they are. It is based on IV scores and that Pokemon's current level. Generally, a Pokemon with higher CP will perform better in battle than one with a lower stat.BIGGEST POKEMON CARDS BOX IN THE WORLD! (Pokemon GO Opening)
