Niantic is starting the year with the release of a brand new Pokemon: Fidough! Along a new Pokemon release we're also getting some of the best bonuses: 4x catch Stardust and XP. Though it's not quite clear how long we'll have these bonuses as we're expected to complete a few rounds of challenges where we have to complete an unknown amount of nice throws. Al in all, it's a great way to start the new year with plenty of Stardust and XP for all.

Meta Relevance

Mega Manectric is one of the best Electric types out there. Try to score a good IV Electrike if you can whilst stocking up on XL candies.

It lacks the stats to be relevant in PvE.
