Caves are scattered about the Pokémon world, with Zubat swarming most of them. But the Unova region substitute's the flying pest with another: Woobat and Swoobat. But while they may be pains in a Unovan play-through, what will they be like in Pokémon GO?
WOOBAT
ATTACK: 107 |
DEFENSE: 85 |
STAMINA: 163 |
MAX CP: 1016 |
SWOOBAT
ATTACK: 161 |
DEFENSE: 119 |
STAMINA: 167 |
MAX CP: 1716 |
