Murkrow in Pokemon Survivor

Murkrow at a glance

Stats and Stat Score

Murkrow has 97 HP, 116 speed and a 1.17x attack multiplier. The multiplier scales every move it uses, so it is the number to watch.

Compared with the whole roster, its HP is below average, its speed is well above average and its attack is about average. Weighting attack at half and HP and speed at a quarter each gives the Stat Score of 52.1, which puts it at rank 471 overall, rank 36 of 100 among Johto Pokemon and rank 38 of 60 Dark-types and 54 of 102 Flying-types. The score comes from the game's stat table, not from playtests, so read it together with the best Pokemon guide.

On the full Pokedex ranking Murkrow sits next to Abra one place above it and Palossand one place below it.

Murkrow moves

Pokemon that are not starters begin with the signature move of their first type, so Murkrow starts every run with Bite: a quick bite that knocks foes back.

The level-up cards can then offer 14 different moves: the 8 Normal moves that every Pokemon shares plus 6 moves of its own types. Moves level up to level 5 and can evolve once you also take the stat card they need, which is covered in the move evolution guide. The permanent Repertoire upgrade adds a second, random starting move; see the upgrades guide.

• Normal moves: Tackle, Quick Attack, Swords Dance, Agility, Harden, Body Slam, Hyper Voice, Substitute
• Dark moves: Bite, Dark Pulse, Night Shade
• Flying moves: Gust, Wing Attack, Aerial Ace

Weaknesses and resistances

Murkrow takes extra damage from Electric (1.6x), Ice (1.6x), Rock (1.6x), and Fairy (1.6x). It resists Ground (0.3x), Psychic (0.3x), Grass (0.6x), Ghost (0.6x), and Dark (0.6x). The remaining 9 of 18 types deal normal damage. The chart is softer than the main games: a super-effective hit is x1.6, a resisted hit x0.6 and an immunity x0.3, and two types multiply with each other inside the range 0.3 to 2.4. See the type chart guide for every matchup.

The multipliers apply to the damage you take, and enemies attack with the first type listed for them, so the dangerous enemies for Murkrow are the ones whose first type is Electric, Ice, Rock, or Fairy. Boss shots carry their first type too. Weather does not change these numbers, but it changes your own damage; see the weather guide. There is no same-type bonus, so Dark or Flying moves do not hit harder just because Murkrow shares the type.

How to get Murkrow

Murkrow is part of the Johto banner. A single pull first picks a rarity (30% for Uncommon) and then picks one of the 21 Uncommon Pokemon on that banner at random, so one pull gives Murkrow a 1.43% chance. Without pity helping at this rarity, expect to need around 70 pulls for this one in particular, although the pulls you spend on the banner also fill the rest of your collection.

A pull costs one ticket and ten pulls cost ten tickets or one x10 ticket. Tickets are earned in runs, from missions and from chests and are never sold for money. A duplicate turns into 30 coins, or 90 if it is the shiny version. The full odds and the pity rule are in the gacha guide.

A rarity-2 Pokemon like Murkrow can also turn up as the Lost Pokemon event in a run. Lead it to the marker and, one time in five, it joins your collection; you always get coins, a ticket and a heal.

Shiny Murkrow exists in this game. One pull in a hundred is a shiny, and wild enemies are shiny one time in 4096. Read the shiny guide for the details.

Murkrow as an enemy

Murkrow can show up as a regular enemy from 1:10 into the run (enemy tier 2 and 3). Each run draws only seven Pokemon per tier, so it is in some runs and absent from others.

Its enemy role is chaser: it walks straight at you and hurts you on contact.
