Factors for max CP at a particular trainer level? [duplicate] - A Man Undergoing  Physical Therapy with Prosthetic Leg

For a given trainer level; is the max CP going to be the same for all final evolutions such as Parasect and Pidgeot, or same for all 'stage 2' evolutions such as Parasect and Pidgeotto, or some clear pattern on which pokemon will have the highest CP at their max evolution?

Max CP may be dependent on the particular Pokemon line (Pidgeot) or type (Flying) or rarity (how to determine easily??) or other factors. What I want to understand is, how can I figure out which of my captures is potentially much higher CP without actually evolving and leveling them.



Best Answer

The factors i find most important are rarity (color of the capture circle at a given CP, also Eggs), Evolution stage, and pokemon line, but the last one ties into rarity.

I have A Lapras(1267), Arcanine(1223), and Flareon(1064) all at the same %max CP (I maxed them all at the same trainer level). In terms of rarity the order seems consistent. Evolution stage most likely goes based off of max evolution Vs Current evolution. Meaning the Lapras that isn't an evolved form of another Pokemon is still strong because it's the final evolution.

Do all of same Pokemon have same max CP?

Max CP is based solely on player level and type of Pokemon. Each Pokemon has the same max CP at the same player level.

What determines the CP cap in Pokemon go?

The higher the level a Trainer is, the higher the CP of a Pok\xe9mon can be. Trainer can Power Up their Pok\xe9mon up to ten levels above current Trainer Level. Wild Pok\xe9mon caught will also have higher CP as the Trainer levels up. Once the Trainer has reached Level 30, the CP ceiling for wild Pok\xe9mon is capped at level 35.

What happens when you max CP?

Your player level impacts the maximum CP level of all Pokemon, not just the ones you catch after levelling. You can clearly see this mechanic by comparing the CP circle behind the Pokemon. After you level up, the "filled in" area will decrease, to reflect the increased maximum.

Answer 2

I'm pretty sure max CP is dependent on the evolution line the Pokemon comes from rather than the stage. Going off the hypothesis that requiring more stardust to powerup means you're closer percentage-wise to the cap, I have this example: a ~900 CP Flareon takes 1300 stardust to powerup and yet a ~800 CP Pidgeot takes 1900. This would imply that Pidgeot is closer to capping out despite being at a lower CP.

Answer 3

CP should always be defined as CP%

A 50% Eevee will become a 50% Flareon.

Cost in candy and dust to go from a specific % to 100% (or max%) is the same whether you evolve before or after.

Max CP depends of Pokemon and trainer level (and maybe size bonus)

Answer 4

There is a difference in CP with XL and XS. As I understand it XL will have slightly higher CP and lower HP. XS will have the opposite. I'm not sure if the max CP is related to trainer level but currently, the max trainer level is 40.
