In Pokémon GO, the player can Power Up (Japanese: 強化 strengthen) a Pokémon using Stardust and candy to make it stronger. This is analogous to raising a Pokémon's level in the core series games, but no explicit numeric level is ever given for Pokémon in Pokémon GO. Powering Up a Pokémon raises its stats, which is reflected on the Pokémon's summary screen in its HP and CP. Upon pressing the Power Up button, the game will show how much the CP will be increased and ask the player to confirm.
Each Pokémon effectively has a "Power Up level" that is tied to a Power Up cost, measured in Stardust and candy, and a CP multiplier, a value that is used to calculate both a Pokémon's stats in battling and, during wild encounters, its catch rate. Each time Power Up increases a Pokémon's Power Up level by 0.5, up to a limit dictated by the player's Trainer level. The half-circle gauge above or behind a Pokémon on its summary screen indicates how close it is to this limit. The highest possible Power Up level is 40.
max_Power_Up = min(40, Trainer_level + 2)
A wild Pokémon's Power Up level can be a whole number ranging anywhere from 1 to the Trainer level + 2, up to a maximum of level 30. For wild Pokémon that have a type boosted by weather, the maximum possible level is 35, with Trainer level limits still applying. For Pokémon hatched from Eggs, the initial Power Up level will be the same as the Trainer level at the time the Egg was originally obtained, but capped at level 20.
If a Pokémon is transferred from GO to Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!, then upon being captured in GO Park, its level will be equivalent to the Power Up level.
Levels
Powering Up a Pokémon requires both Stardust and candy. The amount of Stardust and Candy required for the next Power Up will be shown on the Pokémon's summary screen. If the Pokémon is at the maximum Power Up level for the player's Trainer level, then the player will not be able to Power Up the Pokémon. Each time a Pokémon is Powered Up,stats are recalculated using the CP multiplier, which increases with level. Lucky Pokémon require only 50% of the listed Stardust costs to Power Up.
The following table shows the CP multiplier that corresponds to each Power Up level, along with the costs needed to Power Up to the next level. Cumulative costs show the total amount of Stardust and candy needed to Power Up a Pokémon from level 1. Cells that have been grayed-out denote values that cannot be attained or used, but are still coded into the game for conventional purposes.
