Politoed questions

Is Politoed a PokéSurvivor starter?

No. Politoed joins the collection from the Johto gacha, or as a wild shiny if you defeat one.

What type is Politoed in PokéSurvivor?

Politoed is Water. Attack type follows the move, not the Pokémon, so a Normal move such as Tackle still deals Normal damage.

Can Politoed be shiny?

Yes. A wild Politoed is shiny at 1/4096, and a gacha copy is shiny at 1/100. Defeating the wild shiny adds it to the collection.

Is Politoed a rift legendary?

No. Politoed can appear in waves. If its BST sits in a boss band, it can also be one of the five timed bosses.
