Is Qwilfish worth hunting?
Among the 18 Pokémon in the level 50 hunt, Qwilfish ranks 5th for loot per kill — 6% above 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.
72% of all loot comes from a single item: Strange Spike. If its price changes in game, this hunt's income changes with it.
The rare drop worth waiting for is Venom Stone (5,000 at the NPC), at 0.30% chance — on average one every 333 kills.
For XP it ranks 15 of 18 at this level — 1,508 per kill.
