Alolan Sandslash
Compared to standard Sandslash: 182 ATK / 175 DEF / 181 STA. Variants typically retune one or two stats and almost always swap one of the types.
Variant-specific max CP at L40 with 15 / 15 / 15 IVs. Push to L50 with Best Buddy for the absolute ceiling.
POWER-UP COST →If you catch Alolan Sandslash from a raid and see the hundo CP exactly, you got 15 / 15 / 15 IVs. Anything below the min is impossible — it's not actually a raid catch.

How is Alolan Sandslash different from the standard form?
The variant has different typing (Ice / Steel) and rebalanced base stats. This typically shifts its raid and PvP role — for example, regional variants often trade Speed for bulk and swap one type for a niche typing like Ice, Steel, or Ghost. Check the recommended movesets above to see how Hundo Hunter ranks it.
Can Alolan Sandslash appear in raids?
Yes — most regional variants rotate through raids during themed events (Spotlight Hours, GO Fest, Tour seasons). When Alolan Sandslash is a raid boss, the catch CP range above tells you whether your catch is a hundo. Standard raid (L20) is the floor; weather-boosted (L25) raises the whole range.
Where can Alolan Sandslash be found?
Alolan Sandslash is associated with the Alola region in the main series. In Pokémon GO, regional variants appear via raids, eggs, Field Research breakthroughs, and limited-time event spawns rather than being geographically locked the way classic regional exclusives (Heracross, Tropius) are.
Does Alolan Sandslash have a separate hundo CP from the standard form?
Yes. Different base stats produce different CP at the same level + IVs. Alolan Sandslash's raid catch hundo CP is the value shown in the card above (2,783 at L40) — separate from the standard form's number. Always check the variant table when planning a hundo hunt.
