Skitty

Say it: SKI-tty

Kids summary (simpler)Tap to expand

Skitty is the Kitten Pokémon — Normal before Delcatty. In Pokémon GO it is usually candy on the way to Delcatty — not a finished raid attacker. Normal only hits Normal hard; Fighting hits Normal hard. Catch Skitty from the wild, eggs, or events, then evolve.

Say it: SKI-tty

Skitty (#300) is a Normal Pokémon in Pokémon GO — the baby stage of Delcatty. Trainers almost never power Skitty for raids; the value is candy and IVs for Delcatty. Against Skitty, lead with Fighting. Stats, type chart, moves, and counter picks below use our Game Master snapshot.

Pokédex notes

Skitty is a Normal-type Pokémon in Pokémon GO. National Dex #0300. Normal types need coverage moves — check our moveset guide before spending TMs.

Where in GO: Wild spawns, eggs, Field Research, and seasonal events

Invest tip: Do not sink Stardust into Skitty. Keep high-IV copies for Delcatty. Shadow Skitty is the same — evolve toward Shadow Delcatty after Frustration removal.
