Varoom questions

Is Varoom a PokéSurvivor starter?

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

What type is Varoom in PokéSurvivor?

Varoom is Steel / Poison. Attack type follows the move, not the Pokémon, so a Normal move such as Tackle still deals Normal damage.

Can Varoom be shiny?

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

Is Varoom a rift legendary?

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