Alolan Marowak's stats and elemental typing in Pokemon GO
Alolan Marowak is a decent all-rounder in the game. It has the following stats:
- Attack - 144
- Defense - 186
- Stamina - 155
It is a Ghost and Fire dual-type critter. Therefore, it is resistant to seven elemental types: Poison, Bug, Steel, Fire, Grass, Ice, and Fairy. This makes it an excellent defensive creature in the game's PvP scene, and Alolan Marowak is also able to dish out a decent chunk of damage. Just make sure not to put it up against a Water, Ground, Rock, Dark, or Ghost-type creature and you are good to go.
Other than Alolan Marowak, three-star raids during the event will also feature Turtonator, Flareon, and Umbreon. Lucky raiders will also be able to encounter shiny Alolan Marowak and Turtonator.
