Marowak Weakness Pokemon GO
By Jack O'Dwyer
Marowak weakness in Pokemon GO could vary depending on which Marowak trainers are facing.
Marowak, the evolved form of the Lonely beloved ground-type, Cubone, has been rising in popularity thanks to its frequent features in the franchise. After all, Cubone's PokeDex description directly mentions wearing the skull of its deceased mother. Its time in the limelight began long before fans even saw its face. Marowak is one of the few chosen to receive an alternate Alolan form, as well, changing its typing.
Fortunately for some, none of these elements protect this Pokemon from having weaknesses.
