WATERICECOMMON

Cloyster shows up in the level 60 hunt and averages 68 of loot and 2,168 XP per kill.

Is Cloyster worth hunting?

Among the 25 Pokémon in the level 60 hunt, Cloyster ranks 19th for loot per kill, 3% below the level's median.

Its loot-to-XP ratio sits close to the level median — neither a money hunt nor a pure XP hunt, it serves both at a similar pace.

The rare drop worth waiting for is Water Stone (5,000 at the NPC), at 0.38% chance — on average one every 262 kills.

For XP it ranks 9 of 25 at this level — 2,168 per kill.

Drop chance, count and NPC price for every item. Expected value already accounts for the chance and the average count.
