BST 580. These bars are the in-game combat stats, scaled against the highest value in the current roster.

Cresselia does not join the starter board and does not roll as a timed boss. A distortion rift can open from 1:15, and this Pokémon waits in an arena based on one of its types (Psychic). The fight lasts two minutes. A win pays coins, three normal tickets, and two ×10 tickets. A loss or a timeout sends you back at 30% HP with nothing. Go in after the 3:00 boss, with HP to spare. A portal at 1:15 is a common wipe.

Cresselia moves in PokéSurvivor

Cresselia questions

Is Cresselia a PokéSurvivor starter?

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

What type is Cresselia in PokéSurvivor?

Cresselia is Psychic. Attack type follows the move, not the Pokémon, so a Normal move such as Tackle still deals Normal damage.

Can Cresselia be shiny?

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

Is Cresselia a rift legendary?

Yes. Cresselia only appears in a distortion rift, not in normal waves or as a timed boss.
