Corviknight Pokémon GO is a Flying and Steel-type Pokémon with its own GO stats, move pool and evolution requirements. This guide covers whether Corviknight can be Shiny, how its evolution works, its weaknesses, current move pool and the main details worth knowing before you spend Candy or Stardust.
If you are building your collection or preparing for a future event, the Corviknight Pokémon GO information below keeps the permanent details in one place. Exact encounter availability changes through seasons and events, so current event guides should always be checked alongside this evergreen page.
Can Corviknight Be Shiny in Pokémon GO?
Yes, Shiny Corviknight is available in Pokémon GO. A Shiny encounter is never guaranteed, but Corviknight Pokémon GO can be collected in its alternate colour when an eligible encounter method is available.
Shiny Corviknight has been obtainable through wild encounters, research encounters, evolution and photobomb encounters. Those methods can rotate in and out of the game, so their presence here does not mean every method is active at all times.
How to Evolve Corviknight Pokémon GO
Corvisquire
CorviknightCorviknight evolves from Corvisquire using 100 Candy. Evolution requirements in Pokémon GO can be different from the main-series games, so the Candy, item, Buddy or time requirements above are the ones that matter in GO.
Corviknight Pokémon GO Weaknesses
Corviknight is weak against Electric and Fire attacks in Pokémon GO. These are the attacking types to prioritise when you need super-effective damage against Corviknight.
Corviknight resists Bug, Dragon, Fairy, Flying, Grass, Ground, Normal, Poison, Psychic and Steel attacks. Pokémon GO uses its own battle multipliers, so the amount of damage differs from the main-series games even when the general type matchup is familiar.
Corviknight Pokémon GO Stats
Pokémon GO base stats are not currently available for Corviknight.
Corviknight Pokémon GO Moves
Corviknight can currently draw from the move pool below. The strongest choice depends on whether you are building for raids, Gyms, Team GO Rocket or PvP, so this evergreen guide lists the available moves rather than pretending one moveset is automatically best for every format.
| Move type | Available moves |
|---|---|
| Fast Moves | Steel Wing, Air Slash, Sand Attack |
| Charged Moves | Sky Attack, Payback |
| Elite Charged Moves | Iron Head, Air Cutter |
Elite moves are not normally available from a standard TM. When an Elite Fast TM or Elite Charged TM is required, it is worth checking the exact battle format and current meta before using such a limited item.
How to Get Corviknight in Pokémon GO
Corviknight is released in Pokémon GO, but its exact encounter methods can change as seasons, events, raids, eggs and research rotate. For that reason, the safest way to hunt Corviknight Pokémon GO is to check the current Pokémon GO guides on The Click alongside this evergreen page rather than relying on an old spawn list.
When Corviknight is set as your Buddy Pokémon, it requires 1 km of walking per Buddy Candy. Buddy walking can therefore provide another steady Candy source when Corviknight is not appearing frequently.
Is Corviknight Worth Catching in Pokémon GO?
Yes, there are good reasons to keep catching Corviknight Pokémon GO when it is available. Its Shiny form gives collectors another target. Whether you should invest Stardust in a particular Corviknight depends on its IVs and the battle format you actually plan to use.
