Niantic making changes to the Combat Power of various Pokemon in Pokemon GO

Pokemon GO players should be aware that Niantic has made adjustments to the CP (Combat Power) of Pokémon in the game. Creatures including Alakazam, Rhydon, and Gengar will receive a boosted CP. Meanwhile, others will be lowered.

Niantic says that the changes “will allow a more balanced and competitive battling and training experience in Gyms.” The company “will continue to adjust the CP going forward to improve the game balance when necessary.”
