12 Things Pokemon Go Doesn’t Bother To Tell Its Players

COMBAT POWER

Pokemon GO doesn’t have traditional levels for your Pokemon, like in the main games. Instead, your Pokemon’s overall strength is denoted by something called Combat Power, which often shows up as CP in the game. The higher the CP, the stronger the Pokemon. CP can be increased by feeding a Pokemon Candy corresponding to its species, as discussed before, and you will also find Pokemon with higher CP in the wild, as your own Trainer level increases.
