Crocalor

Kids summary (simpler)Tap to expand
Crocalor is the Fire Croc Pokémon — Fire middle stage between Fuecoco and Skeledirge. In Pokémon GO it is usually candy on the way to Skeledirge — not a finished raid attacker. Fire helps against Grass, Bug, Ice, and Steel; Water, Ground, and Rock hit Fire hard. Evolve Fuecoco up the line. Torch Song from Fuecoco Community Day belongs on Skeledirge.

Crocalor (#910) is a Fire Pokémon in Pokémon GO — the middle evolution of Fuecoco. Trainers almost never power Crocalor for raids; the value is candy and IVs for Skeledirge (and Torch Song). Against Crocalor, lead with Water, Ground, or Rock. Stats, type chart, moves, and counter picks below use our Game Master snapshot.
